    :yeahthat: me too, open windows when home (& back door when not cold), rubbish out daily.

    I have an open plan lounge room that enters the kitchen so i love the scented candles from Dusk, the ones in the glass jar with lid as i find they last me almost a year for one candle (although the latest ones are a smaller size). Wish they would bring back the blueberry fragrance

    In the bathroom i have the window open slightly during the daytime & turn on the plug-in fragrance diffuser for a few hours each day. Also in the toilet i have a fragrance blue loo block in the cistern.

    In the bedroom i have a ceramic bowl with potpourri which i add fragrance oil to once in a blue moon.

    And in my linen cupboard & my underwear drawer i put the sample strips of parfum (that you are meant to rub on your wrists) that are in magazines IYKWIM !!

    I open all the windows first thing every morning, the house is kept 'open' until after dinner, rubbish out every afternoon, dishes done every night, so theres no bad smells building up overnight when the house is shut. We try to keep the house 'fresh'.

    Mmmmmm, vanilla scented candles. I have about 10 spread around my house, and I just light them if I need to. Incense sometimes too.

    Hate those spray air fresheners, especially the ones that spray at intervals It can't be healthy to breathe in those chemicals every 9, 15 or 25 minutes

    Leasha ... I have a vanilla candle from the shop " Dusk " that is just the most long-lasting vanilla candle smell i have ever had (it in a frosted glass jar with a lid, looks nice to place anywhere too )

    The ikea candles aren't bad either - not a fan of their tealight candles (ikky chemical smell which doesn't go well with the smell of my oils) but they do a candle in a glass - the vanilla one smelt yummo for quite a while & so does the chocolate one

    house open as much as possible. partylitle candles and reed diffusers all over the place. clean up each night unless bub in a foul mood and we cant
    cooking stinky food we burn a candle in the kitchen until we've cleaned up
    we only light the cansdles at night (not safe when house open up with breezes)
    have had the same reed diffusers up since this time last year and still going strong
    in the walkin robe i have the hanging terracotta (i thiunk) leaves that you put oil on to make it smell nice. fresh cotton smell
