One of my absolute favorite smells is clean clothes in a dryer.  You know when your outside, near the dryer vent, and you can smell the fresh laundry smell?  Oh man, I love that!  That particular smell reminds me of being at my Grandma's house as a kid.

Once I stopped using conventional laundry detergent, fabric softener, or dryer sheets that smell became less familiar to me.  However, now that I use essential oils it is better than ever!  When I first starting making my own soap I was lazy and cheap, and didn't always add in essential oils.  The soap still worked great, but I missed that fresh clean smell.  Now I always add essential oils, and now that I am using these dryer sheets, my laundry smells even better.  Plus, they work well at softening the clothes.

NATURAL DRYER SHEETS INGREDIENTS

1 cup white vinegar
20-30 drops of essential oils (Get my favorite oils here: shopoils.com/laura-ascher/)
Cotton cloths

NATURAL DRYER SHEETS INSTRUCTIONS

Mix the vinegar and essential oils into a small bowl and stir until well combined.
Cut old cotton t-shirts or fabric remnants into 5 inch squares. You can also use reusable cotton baby wipes.
Fold the fabric pieces to fit inside of a mason jar or other airtight container.  Pour the vinegar and essential oil mixture over the cloth wipes. I made 12 cloths and used all the liquid. If you make less you may not need all the liquid.  You don't want to saturate them.
Add 1-2 cloth dryer sheets per load.  Before putting the cloths into the dryer squeeze access liquid back into the storage container.

HOW THE NATURAL DRYER SHEETS WORK 

These double as a fabric softener and dryer sheet.  The vinegar helps to soften clothes and leaves no residue on the laundry.  Don't worry your clothes won't smell vinegary!  As the clothes dry the vinegar smell will go away.  The essential oils will add a beautiful scent to your clothes and you can customize it to smell however you want.  I share my favorite oils to use below.

The vinegar and essential oils both help to reduce static.
