3 DIY Wellness Products You Can Make with Lavender

01. DIY Lavender Uses: Natural Bug Repellent
Did you know the scent of lavender acts as a natural bug repellent? Created this DIY lavender oil for your next camping trip or evening BBQ this summer. Just add 30-40 drops of lavender essential oil and 3 ounces of distilled water in 3-ounce spray bottle.
02. DIY Lavender Uses: Hand Sanitizer
Hand sanitizer is a handy on-the-go way to preventing the infectious spread of Covid-19. Most of us carry one with us at all times to use when we can’t wash our hands. But, I’m not suggesting a DIY hand sanitizer. It is still unclear how safe that is. For this simple DIY, just add 10 drops lavender oil into a hand sanitizer. Not only does it add to the disinfecting power but it has a lovely and relaxing scent.

Make reusable sachets out of pretty fabric remnants, and fill them with lavender for a fresh smell in your laundry.

Lavender simple syrup is an excellent base for summer cocktails, and so easy to make! Add lavender-flavored simple syrup to any summer gin cocktails to elevate it.
Direction: Combine water, sugar, and lavender blossoms in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar dissolves. Simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let syrup cool for 30 minutes.

This a super relaxing DIY. Pour the ingredients and combine them in a tightly closed glass jar. To use the bath salts, pour them into a cotton muslin bag. Make sure the bag is closed tightly before dropping into the bath.
