What's a basic recipe for blending essential oil?

I'm planning on making my own home fragrance oil to put on a diffuser but II don't know what essential oil to buy. Can you give me a basic recipe blend? I'm thinking about starting with Lavender.What's a basic recipe for blending essential oil?
It depends what you want it for, Lavender is good for sleep . Anything citrus will make you more up beat. Lemon grass with anything woody smelling ie cedar wood is relaxing but not tiring . Clary sage good for lowering stress and addictions. Roman Chamomile mixed with lavender is very good for sleep. Don't forget just a tiny amount is needed in a carrier oil (Any vegetable oil ie jojoba oil almond oil even olive oil at a pinch) 5 to 10 drops per quarter cup. should be good.
