I literally LOL-ed! :D

I will eventually wash my quilts and any odor or smell would probably come out. I do like a clean smell so I will use Tide with fabreeze. I burn candles sometimes and I have spay air freshers in the bathrooms. I use plugin air fresheners throughout the house including the quilt room.

Since i don't have any problems with smells or allergies I love to smell the Jasmines outside my bedroom window and the orange blossoms in the yard but my DD avoids going outside because she is very allergic to pollen.

I use air fresheners, if needed. Not paranoid about what's left behind. I do like to use the scented wax melties. As far as burning candles, no way! The smoke from candles do rise and can permeate things...and stain celings.....

After we cook onions or other stinky food we simmer some cloves on the stove....harmless and very effective.

Boston, those sprays are nasty. Read the labels.

In the past I used plug in air fresheners, until I noticed they were leaving a sticky residue on the unit itself and on the windowsilsl above them. Figured if there was a sticky residue there there would also be residue elsewhere. Now don't use anything but cloves boiled on top of stove for a few minutes.

SusieQoh,
Oh Sweetie, I do not have any. I just started thinking when I saw the commercial last night. :)

All those grocery store air fresheners and scented candles are toxic. We are exposed to so many toxins we can't avoid, I certainly avoid the ones I can. A diffuser with GOOD essential oils is my chosen method. The only trouble with that is with the rising popularity of essential oils, there are many adulterated ones on the market. I have one going right beside my design wall and don't worry about the fabric.

Ditto. And if the air freshener is oil based, imagine what breathing that in all day, every day, is doing to your lungs.

I have allergies and occasionally shop in thrift stores and pick up fabrics while shopping. From personal experience, I can tell you that perfumes and air fresheners penetrate fabrics, even if they are in closed cabinets. At the very least, I have to wash those fabrics twice to get the scent out.
