50+ Diffuser Blends for Christmas
The ultimate list of Christmas diffuser blends to make your home bright and cheery and festive, or warm and cozy to snuggle up by the fire!
One for every day of December and more to spare!
This is by no means a complete list of diffuser blends you can make for Christmas, and there is no rule that says you can’t mix and match any of the above however you want to make your own unique Christmas blend. This is just a jumping off point. Some ideas for you to try.
If you do get hit with magical Christmas inspiration and come up with that perfect holiday concoction, please share it in the comments so the rest of us can join in the holiday cheer AND tell you how awesome and amazing you are for creating it! 😉
Tips
- These oil amounts are for a small-ish area, if you are diffusing in a large room or open space, I would suggest doubling the drops in the blends or you won’t be able to smell it very well throughout the room.
- If you find a blend that you really like, go ahead and mix up a big batch of the blend in an empty oil bottle (or you can buy the 30mL dropper bottles) and keep it by your diffuser. Then just add 6-8 drops of the mix to your diffuser.
- Have a favorite candle scent that you pull out every Christmas? See if you can recreate the scent using essential oils this year.
P.s. if you think the idea of Christmas Diffuser Blends is cool, but you don’t have any of those magical oils yet, go get in the Christmas Spirit and order the ones from the blends that piqued your interest.
Or, send a little hint to Santa or whoever is filling your stocking that THIS is all you want for Christmas this year.
