I wanted to make some custom scents for charms, and I couldn’t find any new ones at Hobby Lobby, or MIcheal’s so I decided to try and make my own.

♥ What You’ll Need:
Extracts
Oil
Bottles
Labels
Markers/Pen

♥ Extracts – You can find these extracts at any grocery store, and their normally used for cooking.

♥ Oil – You’ll need an odorless oil as the base because the oil will help the scent/extract stick to the clay.

♥ Bottles – I used Craftsmart bottles that I found at Michael’s in the painting section.

I was going to try this with olive oil because that’s all I had but olive oil has a distinct smell, and I didn’t want every scent I made to have a touch of olive. So I went to GNC and purchased a 16 oz. bottle of grape seed oil, and 16 oz bottle of sweet almond oil. Both are odorless, and the almond oil was on sale for $4.99 (the grape seed oil is $9.99). The bonus is you can use the left over oil on your skin and hair (the grape seed oil isn’t as greasy as the almond oil).

♥ What Can You Scent?

Polymer clay
Candles
Soap
Lotions
Body Wash
Scrubs
Lip Gloss

Pretty much anything that can be mixed with oil! ..except food because the oil I used isn’t edible

♥ How Long Does The Scent Last?

It’s lasted months for me, but if you want to touch up the fragrance you can rub some of the scented oil onto the clay after it’s baked with a Q-tip. The clay will soak up the scented oil and the smell will be fresh! So you can keep reapplying as you see fit.

However, don’t rub the scented oil on baked clay that’s been dusted with chalk because the scented oil will rub the chalk off.
