Enjoy your essential oils wherever you go
with these DIY essential oil car diffusers!
Difficulty level:
From VERY EASY to as complex as you want them to be!
What you need:
- A clothes pin
- Lava beads and/or a lava pendant
- Glue (we used E-6000)
- Findings and charms, if desired
- Beading tools, such as pliars, etc.
- And, of course, essential oils!
Directions:
* * N O T E * * For either clip:
Check your clothes pin on your car's a/c vent to determine how far up you want to glue your pendant. You'll want to check this first as you need to be sure you can place your clip far enough into the vent for it to stay in place.
The cross diffuser clip is as easy as they come! Simply glue your pendant of choice onto the clip. Allow to dry several hours. When you are ready to diffuse, simply add a drop or two of your favorite essential oil onto the lava pendant and allow the oil to soak in for a few minutes. You may want to rub the oil into some of the holes on the pendant. Once the oil is absorbed, clip onto your car's a/c vent and go! We used a cross, but we also have fish, hearts and lots of colors! Find them HERE.
For the beaded diffuser clip shown here, arrange your beads onto a headpin and make a loop at one end to hang a charm chain. Glue the beads (already attached to the headpin) straight onto the clip, letting the loop hang slightly over the end of the clip so your charms will hang nicely. Allow to dry several hours. Use a one inch length of chain to hang your charms from - arrange how you like. Secure charm chain onto the loop using a jump ring. When you are ready to diffuse, simply add a drop or two of your favorite essential oils onto one or more of your lava beads and allow the oil to soak in for a few minutes. You may want to rub the oil around the bead a little. Once the oil is absorbed, clip onto your car's a/c vent and enjoy your oils wherever you go!
You can find our selection of lava beads HERE.
Our selection of charms can be found HERE. (charms are listed at the end of the page)
*as always, when dealing with essential oils, use care to avoid contact with plastic, as EO's can break down plastics. Make sure your EO's go on your lava and not on car parts! :)
*strong scents may scent your vehicle longer than lighter scents.
