Tentacle Beads/Wraps

Alright, so I have become a bit of a tentacle clay maker recently, there is just something about octopus and tentacles that I absolutely love! So I now have them made and ready to put onto dreadlocks, yay. 

I even sell them pretty cheap if you ask me but hey, I am trying to promote my own shop So of course I'm gonna tell you that but seriously. I do sell for $10 or less as I am trying to get going and these are my first few so, anyway either go give my shop some looks and if you can't buy just favorite them. Also follow me on Instagram - Felisha_Honey I will be having a giveaway on there at some point and who doesn't love those?!

Stove top air freshener

I have attached a beautiful fall picture to which the rights are not mine, I just wanted a picture to represent the smell of this air freshener. 

So, as I mentioned before I make an air freshener that I use on my stovetop to make my home smell even more like fall since my carpet powder already helps with that.

I am pretty sure there is, at least a simple or even the same recipe that I use to make this but I know that some people may not have seen those, so I'll share the one I make.

I take my smallest pot which is a pint size pot, and I fill about halfway with water which converts into 2 cups. Then I take usually (because I don't want it to be too powerful) 2 cinnamon sticks, if I want it to smell stronger I add in three but never more than that, but again it depends on your preference and the size of your home. (I just really don't like too much cinnamon it makes my nose all stuffy and I generally hate cinnamon but that's neither here nor there.) Then I add in around a tablespoon of whole cloves (if you have clove essential oil like I do, either one would work, I would suggest around 10 drops maybe more depending again on your preference). After that I cut an orange into slices and I usually make them around 1/4 of an inch thick, and I add in around 4 slices (again if you don't have fresh oranges lying around but have Orange Essential oil then I'd suggest adding in around 10 drops of that as well, or you know again, whatever your preference is) and then I just turn it up to get a boil going and then after that I turn it down to low just to simmer slowly and allow all those amazing smells to mix together and make my home smell just so fall like and amazing.

So just to make it a little more easy to follow I will list ingredients, just know that these are my preferences and every person is different, just try it with these and if there is something you want to smell more of just add more or take some away from the others.


2 cups of water
2-3 cinnamon sticks
1 Tbsp whole cloves  (10 drops clove EO)
4 slices of orange  (10 drops orange EO)


Just play around, I really don't think there would be any way to mess this up, your home and nose has it's on preferences of smell, though if you are sick with a sensitive nose that I usually get during the fall/winter months, I would suggest using half of everything besides the water.

I know this post isn't long but I woke up with swollen tonsils and now I need to sit with my head over some steaming water and drink my peppermint tea to soothe my throat.

Peace and Love

Carpet powder

So, I'm a coffee drinker, I literally do not start my day until I have my cup of java in my hand. So along with my coffee I use creamer, and I always try and find ways in which to reuse the creamer bottle, I know I could recycle but hey sometimes I need those bottles to store my own things in.

I love having a fresh smelling house and I love changing up the smells according to the seasons, for summer I had a "fresh" spray from the Downy Unstoppables, now its starting to turn into fall, I am waking up to 50 degree crisp lovely mornings where I live and I am absolutely in love with being outdoors right now. Fall is my favorite.

So along with this amazing fall weather I decided it was time to change up the smell of my home. I like making my own smells, I have a fall pot in which I make my own smell good for my home and it leaves it smelling like fall and just warm fuzzies in your belly. (I'll make a post for this soon) I also like having clean carpets hence my spray for carpet stains and now this powder for carpets which is cheaper than buying that Arm and Hammer box.

This is where my creamer canister comes in if you were wondering why I started out with that. So this powder can be a simple as two ingredients or up to as many you feel you need to add in.

A simple powder is just baking soda and essential oil, your choice, a lot of people use orange because it smells so clean afterwards. But since its fall I used a clove essential oil if you have ground clove that will work just as well.

I also add in diatomaceous earth as it helps to kill any bugs if any are present and helps to repel any that might make their way in. Here is the DE that I buy and use.


If you want to make a powder that kills bugs and can't wait on the DE then adding in a Tbsp of borax in its place will also kill any bugs in the carpets as well.


My recipe is

1 small box of baking soda
2 Tbsp DE (or 1 Tbsp of borax)
2 Tbsp ground Nutmeg
10-15 drops clove EO (or 1 Tbsp of ground clove)

mix it all together, I use a long knife or just screw the top on and shake. Then sprinkle on carpet, let sit for at least 15 minutes and then vacuum.

My house smells like you've just walked into fall and I am in love.

I know once spring is here I will be experimenting with some other fresh smells with floral essential oils.

If you try this out please let me know what smells you incorporated and if you liked it.

DIY Febreeze

This picture was found on the Internet and in no way my own. 

Again, if you've been keeping up with my then you know I would rather make it before I buy it, especially if it cost more than I feel it should.

So then, I make my own febreeze, I use the downy unstoppable's to do so but I still make it my own way.

I but the "Fresh" scent because it's the one I love the most, I've tried the lavender and liked it alright too but Fresh to me was better, but I'm sure your noses might smell things differently than mine so you choose.

But I pour probably around a tablespoon of the beads into a spray bottle, add in hot, like super hot water but only around 1/4 of a cup and let it sit and let the beads dissolve. Once they dissolve I add in warm water until I feel it is full, usually not to the top because I swish it around before each use and don't want a leak. So I usually leave around an inch from the top of my 12 oz spray bottle. These beads are around $5.00 plus tax on a smaller bottle, and the spray bottle cost me a whole $1.00 plus tax at the local dollar store. I have only had to make two spray bottles worth so far from one can and I still have plenty of beads left, because this stuff lasts so much longer than febreeze, so I'm not sure in the long run as of right now how much this will save you if you are an avid febreezer. But I do feel it would seriously take down the smell good cost and you can control how potent the smell is with added fewer or more beads to the bottle.

Plus if you haven't had time to do the laundry but this shirt you only wore a couple of hours from Wednesday needs a quick touch up spray a couple of sprays on it and BAM! It smells like it was just taken out of the dryer!

Anyway, I use this on my curtains, couch, mattresses whenever I deep clean them to give them a little more oomph life. I use this on everything I don't want to take down and wash every other week and things I can only spot or "top" clean and I've gotten a few compliments on how fresh everything smelled.
