How to Make Diffuser Blends at Home

Choose any of the blends listed below and follow these simple directions. 

1. Open a 5mL amber glass essential oil bottle. Set the lid aside.
2. Use a small funnel and drop all essential oils into the bottle.
3. Attach the dropper cap and secure the lid.
4. Mix well with a few vigorous shakes.

You may choose to use the blend immediately or, for optimal results, let the oils rest for 1-2 days.

Ideally, you store this oil blend in an amber glass dropper bottle at room temperature, out of direct sunlight. I suggest keeping the bottle in a bathroom medicine cabinet or laundry room with cleaning supplies. Think of a convenient place where it will be easy to find whenever you need it.

Each recipe combines a total of 10 drops and yields 0.5 grams. 

Anytime you desire a larger quantity, simply double or triple the recipe. I suggest testing these blends for a single use first, identifying your favorites, and then multiplying the recipe into large batches to enjoy over time.

How many drops of essential oil in a diffuser?

Usually, you add water to the diffuser and then the essential oil. But how many drops are best?

The amount of essential oil you add will vary by diffuser size and how much water it holds. 

Adding 3-5 drops of essential oil per 100mL of water is a general best practice.

Here is a list of different sizes and the corresponding number of drops to add:

• 100mL 3-5 drops
• 200mL 6-10 drops
• 300mL 9-15 drops
• 400mL 12-20 drops
• 500mL 15-25 drops

The amount of drops does matter because it affects the viscosity of the water and, therefore the ability to diffuse properly or not. When in doubt, review the directions for your specific model and follow them accordingly.

You’ll like these as afternoon diffuser blends. They have such a pleasant pick-me-up effect! Set the diffuser on your office table or over on the corner shelf and let it push seasonal scents into the air.
