Now this is a fun project!
I've been meaning to make these for some time now. I originally saw them on Ree Drummond's Tasty Kitchen website {HERE}. The person who posted this recipe had a much more colorful photo than mine...and I sincerely hope she's not eating them.

Okay, I'm a plain jane, what can I say?
Well, the little sniffers are extremely easy to make! Here's how:
4 packets of gelatin
2 cups water
A small splash of vodka or rubbing alcohol to prevent mold and emulsify the oils.

30 drops (per jar) essential oil of your choosing!
2 8oz jars or smaller, depending on how many sniffers you need :)
Bring 1 cup of water to boil, sprinkle the gelatin and whisk until dissolved. Add 1 cup cold water.
Add your choice of essential oil to the bottom of your jar. Pour in the gelatin and let set at room temperature for several hours until set.
I used a blend of doTERRA Lavender & Balance in one jar (for moi) and White Fir in the other, for my son who lives in "the chateau" and needs about 24 of these straight away.
The Chateau.
Essential Oils Worth Sniffing!
Have fun!
So smart! All the beautiful scents without all the chemicals! I may need to make one for my son's room.
ReplyDeleteI love the mason jars! They're my personal choice for most things. I think those little squatty ones that would be great for this. I love your son's chateau too! I love tiny homes, I don't think I could get my stuff in one, but they fascinate me anyway!Thanks for another great idea.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely going to make these. I bought some of those cute squatty jars - I knew there was something I wanted them for. LOL I came home today and it smelled like our boxer, Dakota dropped a load somewhere. Not likely - it was just gas - BAD gas - so a good smelling sniffer is in order.
ReplyDeleteDoes knox gelatin go bad? I have had some pkts in a tupperware for years.
About how long do these last?
ReplyDeleteApproximately one month Stephanie, they'll start to dry out by then if left open.
