Many solutions are unsightly and an obvious sign that you are trying to mask a bad odor.

Scentsy consultants agree that when thinking of odor masking solutions; often times a little creativity can go a long way.
1. Hide in Plain Sight
One simple way to cover up bad odors in a non-obvious way is to place a decorative bowl or vase in a room with potpourri flowers or scented colored gel beads. The beads and potpourri are available in a variety of colors at your local craft store and can be mixed and matched with a variety of colors to fit any season or dcor. By adding scentsy bars in the center, then the room will be filled with a luxurious fragrance while remaining subtly hidden. This odor away method is appealing to the eye as well as the nose.
2. Think Within The Box
Another decorative way to mask bad odors is to use a scented air freshener or a scentsy candle that is placed in a decorative manner. Unlike scentsy candles however scented air fresheners are fairly easy to spot, so placing one in a decorative tissue box or similar container that has holes in it for aeration can mask odors without being noticed. You can also create your own box or container and decorate it with beads, shells or dried flowers, punching or drilling small holes and placing an air freshener inside. Place the box on a shelf among other items so it blends in but also looks attractive. Use your imagination to create different boxes for different rooms and different occasions.
3. Take a Second Look at Your Fabrics
Bad odors can also be reduced by spraying a piece of decorative fabric with a scented spray then placing it on a shelf or desk in a decorative manner. This provides an odor mask with a personalized touch. Your options for creativity using this method are almost limitless. .
