Homemade Hand Sanitizer

My husband is a nurse, and I am a seventh grade special education teacher.  We know germs.  Unlike my husband, I don't have access to a sink in every room I work in.  And, I don't love the idea of the chemical hand sanitziers that most people use.  So, I began to look for a more natural solution.  
Homemade Hand Sanitizer Ingredients -
Vodka, Tea Tree Oil, and Lavender Essential Oil 



Materials:
- A Small Spray Bottle
- Vodka (any brand)
- Tea Tree Essential Oil
- Lavender Essential Oil



Steps:
1) Fill the spray bottle almost full with vodka 
2) Add five drops of tea tree oil 
3) Add five drops of lavender essential oil
4) Shake to mix

*Note: This product does NOT claim to kill 99.9% of bacteria like the products on the market.  However, it is a nice alternative for those of us who do not want to use the harsh chemicals in those.
