These are so awesome ya’ll !!!! I’m definitely over excited about them ! Tonight me and my sisters had craft night for us and the kids so fun !!! And this what I took to make for all of us. It turned out way better than expected. I mean it’s so neat and unique feel. I will be giving these as gifts this year with a bottle of essential oil. Perfect cute combo.

It didn’t cost me one penny to make these cause I had everything if I make tons more I will have to buy a few things but it will still be very cheap. A few months ago I jumped on the Essential Oil wagon and have loved using them daily from then on. I was a skeptic at first that’s just my nature I’m always a skeptic at first. They really work !! I mean they didn’t make me look like a supermodel but did the trick for relaxing, colds and fevers, headaches, energy, (I use mine in my diffuser the most) etc…. I mean when you search Essential Oils 900 million resources pop up. So you get the idea !

How cool is the wood sliver Essential Oil Necklace that absorbs the oil and you can have it on all day and enjoy the sent and benefits of the oil.

You can make or buy more than one necklace for different necklaces and label them on the back or use one necklace for different oils. After you apply a few drops to the wood the sent should last anywhere from 12-48 hours so after that you could change oil if you like.

** These are the materials I used some could be changed if you wish.

~ Necklace Chain or Rope.

~ A stick about the size you want your wood sliver see pic below.

~ A very “true” tested glue I used Elmers’s ProBond Advance I have used it before on stronger projects and it was better than gorilla glue. But any kind you know will work. I do not suggest glue gun.

~ A blank necklace charm I think they are called blank jewelry disk. This is what you will glue your wood piece on.

** I used a skill saw but I honestly think you could use a knife if sharp enough.

** something to apply pressure to the blank jewelry disk and the wood sliver. Pressure must be applied at least for 2 hours to get a  true hold. I used vise grips it worked perfect.

AND THAT IS ALL !!! SO EASY AND AWESOME

Take a look below at my detailed pictures if any of my written directions were not clear the pictures should help…

The Stick, Wood Slivers, Chain, & the blank disk charm.

This is the stick I used I found it out in the woods.

The ProBond glue worked very good but you can use a lot of different kinds.

I first put glue on the blank jewelry disk then applied the wood sliver on top.

Right after I applies the glue then the wood disk I immediately placed in the vice grips so it could dry for a few hours. 

Look how cute and unique the finished product is !!! YES I’m very proud of this DIY project.

Please let me know if you have any questions at all I would love to answer them all !!! And if you make one please share here I cant wait to see !!!

Thanks so much for coming by it means more than you know.

Hey yall a few months ago when i 1st started blogging i posted about essential oils. I took the leap and bought me a few. I have been so pleasantly surprised how much i love them.

So i wanted to update yall on my experience and show you how i use oils daily without breaking the bank.
Now i know there is tons of people that will definitely disagree with me cause people really have trust in the popular brands such as DoTerra and Young Living.

And i don’t disagree at all i totally think those people are right and know what they are talking about. But at this time in my life i have to budget everything. I envy you if you don’t ♡

So i did a litttle digging and searching for cheaper oils and bought me a few. I wouldnt know if i liked them until i tried even though they all had amazing reviews I’m a hands on person i have to test for myself.

So the oils i have been buying and using i got all off Ebay or Etsy.

RibbyRue
Dr.Adorable, Inc.
DarNaturals

All of the essential oils i have purchased have not been over $8 a bottle.

Now i know the saying you get what you pay for and mostly it’s true but in this case these have really worked for us and i enjoy them.

And i love them !!! I don’t use any oils for internal use. External use only for me and my kids. I put a few drops of at least one oil in every bath i take and it’s so relaxing. I use lavender for the kid’s pillows for resting.

Studies show that using smell can trigger things in your brain and i definitely believe it !! I am no longer a skeptic at all !!!

What I’ve learned so far:

°•○ I tend to use the ones that smell really good way more. Some are just tonearyhy for me.
°•○ My one and five year old have had zero skin reactions.
°•○ I like to rub them on my neck vs. My face cause some oils are more oily than others.
°•○ I definitely think oils can alter your moods.

When i added oils to my daily life it kinda reminded me to relax and breath a little in this busy life i have !

Next up for me is frankincense i want to make a face lotion with it using coconut oil and vitamin E. I’m so excited i have already bought what i need.

My hands down favorites are:
Lavender
Peppermint
Lemon
Grapefruit
Eculaptus

I didn’t love:
Patchouli
Vetiver
