    I found this recipe on another forum:

    2 cups distilled water
    2 ounces vodka
    20 drops lavender essential oil

    They said if you want to use other oils - test them first. They also said you can put it in your iron if you want. So I guess I'll be using up DH's vodka just so I can iron those stubborn wrinkles out of my material.
