Lavender Pillow Spray

Posted on May 3, 2019May 4, 2020 by jennifer froese

Everyone knows that a good night’s sleep is essential for mental and physical health, but sometimes you just need a little extra help drifting off. This lavender pillow spray helps promote relaxation and deeper sleep using lavender essential oil.

Lavender essential oil is very calming, and has balancing properties for the mind and body. I keep this on my bedside table and spray a few sprays on our pillows as I’m getting ready for bed.

If you’re a lavender lover like me, you should also check out this post on how to make your own lavender foaming hand soap.

Making your own personal care products is much easier than you probably expect. You can also avoid toxic ingredients found in many commercially-produced items, including artificial fragrances. For example, here’s a list of ingredients found in a “natural” pillow spray from a well-known commercial brand: “Water. Fragrance. Alcohol. Nobilis flower oil. Lavendula oil (lavender oil). Cedrus atalantica bark oil. Aloe leaf extract. Propylene methoxydibentoylmethane. Methoxycinnamate. Alpha-isomethyl. Methylpropional. Linalool.” Is anybody else scratching their head about how to even pronounce those last five ingredients?

Lavender Pillow Spray

Ingredients:

Lavender Essential Oil
Witch Hazel or Vodka
Distilled Water
Small Funnel
Spray Bottle (these are the 2oz. amber glass ones that I use)
Retro Label Maker

Directions:

To make this lavender pillow spray, combine one tablespoon witch hazel (or vodka) and three tablespoons water in the spray bottle using the small funnel. Then add five drops of lavender essential oil, replace the top, and shake it up!

I’ve always used lavender essential oil, but I’ve seen many recipes that contain combinations of ylang ylang, bergamot, vetiver and cedarwood as well. Feel free to experiment to find a blend that you love! Do you have any essential oils that are a part of your bedtime routine already?

      So dreamy! Must try! I love smelling lavender before I fall asleep. I think it helps my puppy calm down too 🙂

    I installed these @urbanwalls “inked leaves” d I installed these @urbanwalls “inked leaves” decals in our laundry room last week. It’s definitely a little bit crazy for me (usually I choose very simple and neutral when it comes to decorating), but I’m really loving it so far!

The rest of our house is a total d i s a s t e r! This time of year I always get the itch to declutter so I’m currently sorting through all our cupboards and closets and paring down. It’s gotta get worse before it gets better right? 😅

    Here's a little sneak preview of what I've been wo Here's a little sneak preview of what I've been working on in the kitchen! The second picture is from before we moved in last fall. I installed a beadboard backsplash and (finally!) painted the cabinets and the backsplash "Stony Ground" by Farrow & Ball. I'm really loving how it turned out! Just waiting on the new sink and faucet to arrive. I found the most beautiful unlacquered brass faucet on @Etsy and can't wait to show you!!
