Re: Linen Spray HELP ME OUT PLEASE CONFUSED! LOL

[Guest guest]

Okay.

You all have me confused.

I think Linen as linen............. LOL. what is this linen spray and what

exactly does it do.

I seen stuff now that sounded more like a oil type spray with the linen name and

now this one.......??

sorry, don't mean to sound dumb...... *covering blonde hair**

and I have seen this denatrued stuff alot........... In different forms.

Can someone please explain all of this to me.

I would appreciate it.

I am eager to learn............ Just seeing different meanings for the same name

of stuff now... *confusing me even more*

Thanks so much

Re: Linen Spray

I make a spray by combining:

4 oz. grain or 39C denatured alcohol

4 oz. distilled water

1 to 2 tsp. fragrance oil

Dissolve the oil completely in the alcohol, then very slowly add the water

to this. I also use this same recipe to make a body spray/splash, but I add

1 tsp. glycerine to this to help the scent last longer on the skin by

reducing the evaporation rate of the alcohol. You would not want this in

your linen/room spray, since evaporation is crucial if you want to avoid wet

sheets and furniture!

You can also make a spray by using polysorbate 20 or 80 to emulsify the oils

with the water, but I don't have experience using this, and from what I have

read, results in a cloudy mixture (this can be counteracted by packaging in

an opaque bottle).

Hope this helps!

Hi

Well the linen spray I do is for putting in your Iron to make your clothes smell

nice or for spraying on your clothes while you are ironing. You can also use it

as room freshen or even to freshen up you curtains. And the lavender one is

good to spray on your bedding to help get a good night sleep. Or even to spay

on the bedding to freshen up a guest room.

Thanks Tricia... That makes more sense now

I seen another one that had oil mentioned in it....... Couldn't figure that one

out. It has to be something different.
