Ingredients
- 1 1/2 – 4 cups of Downy Unstopables (depending on your preference)
- 25 cups of Water
- 32-ounce Spray Bottle
Instructions
Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
Gather your ingredients and a clean, empty spray bottle. You’ll want a bottle that can hold around 32 ounces to store your Faux Febreeze.
Step 2: Mix the Magic
-
Start by pouring 1 1/2 to 4 cups of Downy Unstopables into the empty spray bottle. The amount you use will depend on how strong you want the scent to be. Play around with it to find your perfect balance.
-
Next, add in the 25 cups of water. This is what will dilute the Downy Unstopables and create your freshening spray.
Step 3: Shake it Up!
Secure the lid tightly on your bottle and give it a good shake! Make sure the Downy Unstopables are thoroughly mixed with the water for the best results.
Step 4: Freshen Up Your Space
Now comes the fun part! Use your Faux Febreeze to freshen up your home:
- Spray it on furniture to give your living room a burst of freshness.
- Spritz it on carpets to eliminate odors and leave a lovely scent.
- Refresh your pillows for a cozy, inviting feel.
- Don’t forget about shower curtains! A quick spray will keep them smelling clean and pleasant.
Step 5: Fabric Test
Before using your Faux Febreeze on any fabric, it’s always a good idea to do a test. Spray a small amount in an inconspicuous area and wait to see how it reacts. Once you’re sure it’s safe, go ahead and freshen up those fabrics!
Step 6: Regular Freshening
Make Faux Febreeze a part of your weekly cleaning routine. Give your home a spritz once a week to maintain a consistently fresh atmosphere.
Tips & Tricks

-
Label Your Bottle: Once you’ve mixed up your Faux Febreeze, label the bottle with the ingredients and date. This way, you’ll always know what’s inside and when it was made.
