My Vision for Life

   When I, Julia, began this journey of being a wife and mother I had an idea of what I wanted that to look like, I figured my Mom is ...

Make Your Own Bug Spray


You will need:

4oz - Boiled or Distilled Water
1tsp - Pure Vanilla Extract (insect deterrent)
4oz - Witch Hazel (carrier)

To Increase Strength You May Add:
10-20 drops essential oil-
   Eucalyptus, peppermint, lemongrass, citronella, or lavender

Some people also choose to use Vinegar or Grain Alcohol, I say no to those because they can absorb through the skin, which can be a big no no for kids and those sensitive to GMOs

Instructions: 

1.) Fill 1/2 of an 8 oz. spray bottle with distilled or boiled water.
2.) Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 
3.) Fill the rest of the bottle with witch hazel.
