We received this tip about freshening your home from our reader, Natalie, and thought it was a great tip!
I worry about using those carpet fresheners (powders and sprays) with a baby being on the ground, so i found a new way to accomplish the same thing without putting anything on the floor. If you have a bagless vacuum you can put air fresheners in the filter part. I put a handful of Renuzit crystals in the filter holder of mine and now it smells great every time I vacuum, which is a lot! Also, every once in a while, i will febreeze the furnace filter, so whenever the air/heat kicks on, it smells good! This could be done in a house where allergies are a problem as well.
