Do you know how to improvise a scented oil burner?

I want to use the fragrant oil that I already have, without buying a scented oil burner. Would it be safe to place a few drops in a small ceramic dish with a tea light candle(with the metal still around it) on top of the drop of oil? Or would placing a drop of oil on top of a candle work?

Not sure about your ideas. If you add oil to a candle, make sure it's an UNscented candle or you could end up with something really rank.

I think using a ceramic dish with a tealight under it would work, however you will have to find some way to suspend the ceramic dish above the tealight, for two reasons: 1) if the dish sits directly on top of the tealight, the flame will not survive due to lack of oxygen and 2) you could scorch your ceramic dish which I'm guessing would not smell pretty in addition to ticking you off at yourself.

One other inexpensive thing you can try is a light bulb oil ring. You can find these pretty cheap -- http://store.crabtree-evelyn.com/acc899012.html.

Last, you can find some inexpensive wooden reeds and sit them into your oil bottle. The reeds will absorb the oil and diffuse the scent into the air. Here's a 10-pack for a buck: http://www.amazon.com/Replacement-Diffuser-Reeds-11-Pack/dp/B000XGYMZ0

Good luck!
