The Purifying Lavender Linen &amp; Room Spray<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perfect for misting over your bedsheets before sleep, refreshing your curtains, or giving your living room an instant lift. Because lavender has natural antibacterial properties, this spray helps keep soft furnishings fresh between washes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you need:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A small amber or clear glass spray bottle<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 tablespoons of witch hazel or rubbing alcohol (this helps the oil and water mix)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00be cup of distilled water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>20 drops of SYAM Lavender Essential Oil<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Directions:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour the witch hazel and lavender oil into your bottle and swirl gently to combine. Top it up with distilled water, secure the spray cap, and shake well before each use. Mist lightly over linens from about 30cm away to enjoy a crisp, calming breeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Minimalist Lavender Baking Soda Carpet Freshener<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carpets and rugs can hold onto trapped odors and bacteria over time. This dry, two-ingredient scrub naturalizes deep-set smells while leaving behind a beautiful, subtle floral trail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you need:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 cup of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>15 drops of SYAM Lavender Essential Oil<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A glass jar with a shaker lid (or a regular jar with holes pierced in the top)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Directions:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mix the baking soda and lavender oil thoroughly in your jar, breaking up any clumps with a fork. Let the mixture sit for a few hours so the powder absorbs the pure essential oil. Sprinkle a thin layer over your carpets or fabric rugs, let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes to absorb odors and draw out impurities, then vacuum thoroughly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. The Endless Closet Refresher<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep your wardrobes, linen closets, and drawers smelling immaculate while naturally deterring pests like moths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you need:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Unscented cotton balls, small fabric scrap pouches, or raw wooden blocks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>5\u20136 drops of SYAM Lavender Essential Oil per item<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Directions:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Simply place a few drops of the pure oil directly onto cotton balls or small wooden blocks. Tuck them into the corners of your shelves, inside your sock drawer, or in your linen cupboard. The slow evaporation will keep your clothes smelling beautifully clean for weeks. Simply re-apply whenever you notice the scent fading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Choose SYAM Lavender?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not all essential oils are created equal. Many commercial fragrances are diluted with synthetic fillers that strip away the plant&#8217;s natural benefits. SYAM Lavender Essential Oil is 100% pure and unadulterated. This ensures you receive the full therapeutic benefits\u2014from its proven ability to lower stress levels and improve sleep quality, to its robust, natural antibacterial defense for your home.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Order Today on www.syam.com.au or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com.au\/s?k=syam+essential+oils&amp;crid=2KZTEAD6EK4YZ&amp;sprefix=syam%2Caps%2C248&amp;ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_3_4\">Amazon Australia<\/a> or ETSY. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is nothing quite like opening your front door and being greeted by a scent that instantly melts away the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[96],"tags":[91,89,90,92,100],"class_list":["post-27805","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-essential-oils","tag-100pureessentialoils","tag-aromatherapyaustralia","tag-australianessentialoilsupplier","tag-naturalessentialoilsaustralia","tag-sydneywellness"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27805","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=27805"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27805\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27807,"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27805\/revisions\/27807"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=27805"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=27805"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/syamhomes.com.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=27805"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
