How to Store Your DIY Fabric Refresher Safely

Proper storage is key to ensuring your homemade Febreze remains fresh and effective. Store your DIY fabric refresher in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a dark glass spray bottle to protect the essential oils from degrading over time. Be sure to label the bottle with the date you made it so you know when it’s time to mix a new batch. For optimal freshness, it’s best to use your homemade spray within 3-4 weeks.
