Ditch the harsh chemicals and save money by making your own natural cleaning products using items you likely already have at home. Not only are they eco-friendly, but they’re also safer for kids, pets, and sensitive skin.
All-Purpose Cleaner: Mix one cup of white vinegar, one cup of water, and a few drops of lemon essential oil. This works great on counters, tiles, and even glass.
Glass Cleaner: Combine equal parts water and vinegar in a spray bottle. Wipe with a microfiber cloth for a streak-free shine.
Toilet Cleaner: Sprinkle baking soda in the bowl, then pour vinegar over it. Let it fizz for 5–10 minutes before scrubbing.
Air Freshener: In a spray bottle, mix water with a tablespoon of baking soda and a few drops of your favorite essential oil (like lavender or eucalyptus).
Grease Cutter: Combine 1 cup of warm water with a few drops of dish soap and a tablespoon of baking soda. It’s perfect for stovetops and greasy surfaces.
Always label your DIY cleaners and store them away from heat and sunlight. These homemade solutions not only work well but also promote a healthier home environment.
