How To Make Your Home Smell Like A Williams Sonoma Store
Imagine creating a fragrance from just ordinary items you already have. Lemon, vanilla, rosemary, and peppercorns.
First of all, this isn't my recipe. It came from Williams Sonoma (along with the featured picture) - I want to give credit up front since this is a fantastic and easy way to scent your home by using what you most likely already have in your kitchen.
I believe that my home should always smell amazing. Mixing up your fragrance routine is something most people don't do very often. For instance, when we get a new candle, we light it and use it until we finish it off then we reach for the next one. I personally like to mix up the fragrances so I don't get nose-blind to the fragrances I put into my home. If we use the same fragrance every single time, days on end we end up not only going nose-blind but wasting the experience which also is like wasting money.
After using a fragrant candle, I put it away and the next time I get a different fragrance to use. This will help you not get bored or even nose-blind. Now, if you run out of your JOHNSTON + EICHER scented candles and need a great recipe try this one from Williams Sonoma. It's fantastic.
