10 bizarre but effective hacks that will make your home and car smell great

Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to a bit of dry rice. Place the rice in a jar with holes in the lid (small holes). Leave the scented rice in the car. Give it a shake whenever the scent starts to fade.

5. Leave a bowl of vinegar on the counter
Get rid of house odors by filling a bowl with vinegar and placing it on a counter or in the corner of the room to get rid of smells. Dispose of the vinegar after a few hours.
6. Scented clothespin
Coat a wood clothespin with your favorite essential oil and hook it to an air conditioning vent. Whenever you turn the air on, the scent will be distributed throughout the car.
7. Make your own air freshener
If you’re out of your favorite aerosol spray (or you want something more natural), try making your own with water, salt, unflavored gelatin (not Jello) and essential oils. Check out the full recipe from One Good Thing.
