It's been a long, cold winter. Are you getting ready to tackle your winter dust bunnies? In just a few minutes, you can mix up your own cleaning solutions with ingredients you likely have in your pantry already.
You'll save a lot of money, reduce your toxin exposure and be kinder to the environment.
ALL PURPOSE CLEANER
This recipe will make 4 - 28 oz bottles.
13 1/4 cups of Water (1 hot)
1/4 Cup of Dr. Bronner's Castile Liquid Soap - I like Citrus for the All Purpose Cleaner.
1/4 Cup of Borax
1/4 Cup of Vinegar
Mix the hot water with the borax until it dissolves. Add the remaining water, vinegar & Castile Soap. Use a funnel to pour the solution into the four bottles.
GRANITE CLEANER
This recipe will make 2 - 28 oz bottles.
6 cups of Water
1/3 cup + 1 tsp of Alcohol denatured or regular
1 Tbs of Castile Soap - I use almond.
20 Drops of Essential Oil - Citrus or almond work well.
Combine ingredients and pour using a funnel into spray bottle.
Mixing up the solutions is the fun part! Now it's time to get to work and tackle the grime.
