Year of the Horse EO Blends - Basic & Not



Recently I had the good fortune of collaborating with my friend David Fisher, About.com Candle & Soap Making Guide, to come up with some essential oil blends commemorating the Chinese Year of the Horse. David did most of the work.  I got to chat with an old friend and an About.com link to my website.  A pretty sweet deal if you ask me.  You can read all about that project and see the blends here.  

Before I knew exactly what he wanted though (which was several simple, more basic type blends for his readers) I came up with this somewhat complex not-so-basic blend.  David called me an over-achiever.  I called it fun!  

And it's a really good blend I might add.  I'm currently cleaning my bathroom with it.  It chases away germs and odors like nobody's business.  :)
