    Natural Mattress Pad "Freshener"??

    I have a very nice, fluffy mattress pad that I would like to hang out on the laundry line...just to freshen it up. Does anyone have a natural, homemade spray that would work for this purpose? I was thinking lemon juice/peel with water. What do you think or suggest? Thanks!
