@cmzaha do you have your ebook available? I would buy the book just for this recipe. I don’t sell my stuff, just make things for family and friends.

I really like the idea of hanging dryer balls out on the line!

The simplest method for scenting laundry is to add several drops of essential oil to wool dryer balls which also help dry clothes faster.
