I'm getting ready to host my 2nd Essential Oil Make and Take!
My goal has been to hold a Make & Take every other month. You can read about my first Essential Oil 101 Class here. The 101 Class is a great intro to Doterra Essential Oils and the rollerball Make & Take's were easy to do and a big hit!
This month I am focusing on Doterra's Protective Blend (aka On Guard). With all the sickies going around this year, I thought this one would be a great one - and we get to make some fun stuff!
So what do I love about the Protective Blend?? It's main ingredients are Wild Orange, Clove, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus and Rosemary. It supports the immune system*, is a natural way to clean around the home and diffuse to clean the air, supports the respiratory system*, supports the body's natural antioxidant defenses*, protects against environmental threats and it smells amazing!
So, what are we making?
On Guard Foaming Hand Soap - $6.50
On Guard Hand Sanitizer Spray - $4.50
On Guard Cleaning Spray - $4.00
Flu Bomb Rollerball - $5.00
Once I had set the day, time and location (Thanks again for hosting, Mom!), I set up a FB event. FB events are an easy way to get the word out, invite friends and have a central location to post information and updates. I also sent out the class information in a monthly email to all those on my Doterra email list.
Next on the list - put together a supplies list. For any EO product, storing in glass containers is the best option. Aromatools.com or Amazon.com are both great places. I have an Amazon Prime account, so I get free shipping too! Just be forewarned - some of the bottles I ordered were NOT glass - I should have read the fine print better :( I use glass containters for the sanitizing spray, rollerballs and cleaning spray as these will last longer. Because of the shorter usage life of the foaming hand soap, I purchased some plastic bottles from DoTerra. They work well and are a great price.
Once I had my containers, I browsed through some EO books and Pinterest for some great recipes. I did tweak the hand soap and sanitizer recipes a little. But that is what I love about making my own products at home - I can add any of my favorite oils, try a few different options out and see what works best for me!

This past weekend, I spent some time making copies of the recipes, posting the costs for each Make & Take product and a reminder on the event page.
And I think I am ready to go! Happy Oiling!
