Yesterday something really cool happened....well, um....it wasn't a good thing...but we found out something really interesting, cool, and informational!
I took my son, Caleb to his K-3 Fun class that meets 2x a month. He absolutely loves it and this was the first day of the semester.
When we arrived, there was an unmistakeably yucky smell in the building. I later learned that the vacuum cleaner had blown it's belt. You know that smell, right? Well, there was a building full of K-3 graders and parents and it was downright icky. The teacher asked me if I could find some febreeze or something to try and counteract the smell.
I remembered that essential oils will actually break down the molecules of the odor and send it on its way. So, I went to the van to see what I had with me. My purse was full of roller bottles, so I knew those wouldn't work. And, then it hit me....I had a couple spray bottles of my Sonshine Hand Sanitizer. So, I grabbed them and sent my daughter to one area of the building and I went to the other (class had already started by then) and I was trying to be as inconspicuous as possible spraying this in each room. I left a bottle with one of the helpers and we left.
2 hours later, when we returned there was no evidence whatsoever of the odor. His teacher even mentioned that some who had come in after I left were remarking at how GOOD the building smelled!
YAY! Essential oils to the rescue!!
