Guest guest Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Hi I have a few ideas you can try. Make sachets, or take unsented fabric sheets and make drawer liners, with winter coming in you can make candles, candles are a must in case the lines go out. Get a little bag and stuff them with cotton drenched in the oil and put them under your car seat as car freshners. Or do the same thing and place them in your closet and drawers.

They're old - I've had most of them for at least 3 years, some for as long as 5, and some labels are smudged, so I don't feel comfortable selling them. I could give them away, but I paid decent money for them so I don't feel that's an option for me. I don't want to use them on myself because I've learned to be and prefer to be an essential oil user. I'd hate to just throw them away, most bottles are practically full. I guess I could make some soap, body butters and other stuff with them and give the products away, but I would hate to use my raw ingredients - organic coconut oils, golden shea butters and such - with fragrance oils! Maybe I could hold on to them for another 3 to 5 years, but I really want them out of here. Anyone have any ideas on how I can " dispose " of/use them without being too wasteful?

You could always make room freshener spray to give away :-) Or make some grocery store oils (not your good stuff) to make soap to give away Shelley >>I'm in need of ideas on what to do with old synthetic fragrance oils I >>have. >> > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 ......or get some incense blanks. There's nothing wrong with using grocery store oils for making soap. I get half of my oils in the grocery store or at the local GFS (www.gfs.com) Paula .......... in Michigan I used to have super powers but my therapist took them away Scent or rescent potpouri corn cob bedding to make vacumn cleaner freshener Hmmmm depending upon their flash points, what about candle making?
