While I love using essential oils for wellness, they smell amazing too! I love creating scent blends for different occasions, so I’ve put together some of my favorites for the holidays in pin-able graphics. These are great mixes to put in your essential oil diffuser and really bring out the holiday spirit! If you don’t have a diffuser (get one here), you can mix these blends in a spray bottle with a little water, witch hazel, or alcohol and spray around the house for instant holiday cheer.

Seasonal Spice Essential Oil Holiday Blend
This is my favorite! I put 5 drops of Cinnamon oil, 3 drops of Orange oil, and 2 drops of Clove oil and the house just smells like Christmas. I love decorating the tree and wrapping presents while this blend is diffusing and Christmas music is playing in the background.
Woodsy Winter Essential Oil Holiday Blend
This mix of 2 drops of Cedarwood oil, 5 drops of Nutmeg oil, and 3 drops of Frankincense smells like a traditional Christmas blend and brings to mind (at least to me) images of the Christmas story. I like to diffuse this in my kids’ rooms at night during the holiday season while I read them stories of the birth of Jesus and the 3 Wise Men, or while we sing Christmas carols together and then they say their good night prayers (which around this time are all about what they want from Santa, of course).
Minty Magic Essential Oil Holiday Blend
This is a fun blend to diffuse while making cookies or Christmas crafts with the kids. It’s made up of 2 drops of Thieves oil, 5 drops of Peppermint oil, and 3 drops of Rosemary oil. It provides a great pick-me-up too – because we could all use a little extra energy during the holiday season! This is also a great blend to put in a car diffuser while you are out shopping!
Treasure Tree Essential Oil Holiday Blend
This blend of 3 drops Idaho Balsam Fir oil, 2 drops of Cedarwood oil, and 5 drops of Pine oil lets you enjoy the smell of a freshly cut tree, long after your tree’s smell has faded. It’s perfect for sitting my fire or settling in to watch you favorite holiday movie (like ‘It’s A Wonderful Life‘ or ‘Christmas Vacation‘ or ‘A Christmas Story‘ for 24 straight hours…)
Try any one of these blends (or share your favorite scents of the season!) to squelch your inner Grinch and revel in the joy and festivities of the season!
