Fancy Air Freshener

I see these sticks-in-a-jar type of air fresheners all the time at stores, but you can make them for a lot cheaper if you have a few things lying around the house. Even if you don't its still less expensive than what they're going for at the stores. This one cost me $2 to make. Anyway enjoy!

I guess the hardest part to this instructable is getting the materials. You'll need...

- bamboo skewer sticks (these can be found at the grocery store probably in the grilling isle)
- a small vase or container (i got mine at ikea for $2 but really anything smallish with a small neck will work)
- smelly stuff (i used this body spray stuff that i found around the house but cheap oil air fresheners would probably work i got the other one shown at a dollar store)

This is really as easy as you'd think it'd be. Pour smelly stuff in vase. Insert sticks. Ta Da!

For starters it helps to saturate the sticks before putting them in the vase. For my particular project it took a few days for the smell to get going. After that was done I found it only really gets out to about a 6 ft radius so if you have a big room you might want to make a few. But all these things probably depend on the type of smelly thing you use. So you might want to play around with it a little to get your desired smell strength and such. Thanks for reading & good luck!
