Lavender Oil

What you need:

Glass jars with tight fitting lids

Oil - The best and most reasonable oil is Grapeseed Oil
Or Safflower, Canola, (any oil but Olive, peanut, corn oils – they are too heavy and make sure you don’t get an oil that is scented like Almond

Depending on the size of the jars, you need enough Grapeseed Oil to fill each bottle to almost the top
Lavender Oil – Get from a Whole Foods or any health food chain – you want aromatherapy oil, not cheap imitation, or any bottle that isn’t 100 % lavender oil...
Almost fill each jar with the Grapeseed Oil
Using a dropper, infuse (drop) Lavender Oil into the oil to scent. Usually about 8-10 drops per bottle. (depends on the quality of the Lavender Oil, the more you spend, the stronger the smell.
Put top on jars and gently turn back and forth until blended – don’t shake!
