A while ago I decided not to use harsh chemicals and toxic cleaning solutions from the stores any more. They're so unhealthy when you inhale them and could be a serious danger to your children. Plus they are so bad for the environment. Making your own solutions is so much cheaper too!I've tried some great recipes. All you need is a simple spray bottle and a few simple ingredients.
White vinegar is a natural deodorizer, absorbing odors instead of covering them up. (and no, your bathroom won't smell like a salad. The aroma disappears when dry.)
It's also a great substitute for fabric softener!
Homemade spray cleaner recipe:
1 cup of water
1 cup of white vinegar
Yes, it's that simple!
Baking Soda is a great deodorizer too. Just add 2 teaspoons baking soda to a spray bottle with water and you can clean pretty much anything with it.
Add a few drop of lemon juice and it smells nice and clean too. Or a few drops of lavender oil or tea tree oil.
And the fun part is my kids can help me clean! They get some water and lemon juice in a spray bottle and can clean along with me! Perfect! No toxic fumes or irritating solutions!
Spring clean away!
