Mason Jar Repellants

Here's what you need:

4 Mason Jars (you can also recycle jelly jars, etc)

40 drops each – Cedarwood, Lavender, Lemon and Thieves essential oils

                (or use your own combination of oils but these are known to help to repel the buggies)

2 fresh lemons

2 fresh limes

8 sprigs fresh rosemary

water

Floating tea light candles

To Assemble these are just so easy.  I lined up my 4 mason jars and here’s what you do:

• Slice the lemons and the limes and set aside for a moment – I like to have two each just in case but you can possibly use one each
• Place two sprigs of rosemary  into each jar
• Fill each jar 3/4 full with water
• Add the essential oils of your choice  – 10 drops each per jar – and swirl slightly
• Place a slice each of lemon and lime into each jar
• Add more water if needed to raise the level to almost full
• Place a floating tea light candle on top
• Set outside, light and make some magic once you light them*
• Replace tea lights as needed – I recommend having some extras on hand!
• Discard fruit and liquid in jar after 2 – 3 days depending on your climate; rinse jars and start fresh as needed
