During one of our visits to our library this summer-- I came across a book published by Reader's Digest that offered "Everything Homemade" Love Love Love this book!
I came across a section dedicated to homemade household cleaning products. I love my store bought cleaning products but decided to give these homemade options a try. I completely fell in love with them!!!
Here are a few of my favorite recipes:
Febreeze:
1/2 c. liquid laundry softener (whatever brand you keep on hand)
1 Tbsp. baking soda
3 1/2 water
pour ingredients into a 32 oz. bottle and mix well!
Window Cleaner:
1/4 c. rubbing alcohol
1/3 c. white vinegar
3 1/2 c. water
pour ingredient into a 32 oz. bottle, wipe away with old newspapers
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS RECIPE, WORKS 100 TIMES BETTER THAN WINDEX!
Kitchen Cleaner:
1/3 c. rubbing alcohol
1 tsp. clear ammonia
1 tsp. dishwashing liquid
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
fill water to top of 32oz. bottle
THIS RECIPE WORKS GREAT AS WELL
Bathroom Cleaner:
2 tsp. borax
1/2 tsp washing soda*
2 Tbsp lemon juice
4 Tbsp vinegar
3 c. VERY hot water
32 oz. bottle
*washing soda is different from baking soda, it can be found in the laundry section of your local store. I found mine at Walmart, and love it!
