How do you scent your homes?

~I don't like scent in my house because it can trigger a migraine. I do love Fabreeze to freshen up carpets and pillows. I don't have pets or smokers so my home doesn't often need freshening. ~

I love for my home to smell good! Recently, I got one of those AirWick self-spraying air freshners...(FREE after coupon)..the scent is Harvest Spice, it smells really good. I keep oil plug-ins in the bathrooms and a couple other rooms. I love Febreeze and I use it about once a week. I also have a tart warmer that I use alot. I try to keep all my scents along the same lines, like for example right now I am using Apple Cinnamone/spice...after those are gone, I will use Vanilla. Those are my two favorites.

I have one yankee candle & sometime use a diffuser with pure essential oils.
Mostly though, I like opening windows whenever possible. We make a lot of herb teas & they seem to be very aromatic. I think our house smells like herbs & spices most of the time. While we have a lot of candles, they are mostly for lighting, not for scent.

I use lemons. I put a lemon cut in half in a pot of water on the stove and slowly boil it for awhile, it works pretty good, we also just burn plain candles. We had made a choice when we bought our new house to only use natural stuff. For health reasons etc...

I have lots of candles throughout my house. I love the Yankees but I am open to just about any that smell good. WalMart has some that smell great and are pretty highly scented also. I tend to gravitate towards the apple type scents and the fall ones, like pumpkin, cinnamon & cloves, and also the food scented ones, cookies, cakes, breads in the fall and winter and fruits in the spring and summer like melons, cucumbers, peaches, ect... . I don't like the real frou frou smells like cologne or aftershave smelling ones or the heavy florals.
