So far I’ve written on how to make your own laundry detergent and dish soap and dishwasher detergent . Today I’m going to tell you what other cleaning products you can make yourself using a few common household items. I’ve always got these on hand, not only because making my own cleaning products saves me money, but I also feel better about using these around my family. Next time you are at the store pick up some of these:
Glass Cleaner recipe:
2 cups ammonia
1/2 cup vinegar
1 gallon of water
This is such a simple recipe and my mother has used it for years!
All Purpose Cleaner Recipe:
1 tablespoon borax
1/2 cup liquid soap
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 gallon hot water
20 drops of essential oil (optional)
Combine and pour in spray bottle
This is great for cleaning any surface, whether it be kitchen, bathroom, our outdoors. Works great!
Scouring Powder
1 cup baking soda
ΒΌ cup washing soda
Mix together and use as you regularly would
These are my favorite, besides the laundry detergent.
If you decide to make these, please drop me a line to tell me how they work for you!
