How do you make cleaning products?

We've made all sorts of natural things! From all natural bug spray, to an all purpose spray, to face lotion. The options are endless!

Here's a link to our all natural all purpose spray: https://zestitup.com/diy-essential-oil-castile-soap-cleaner/

Pinterest has all kinds of recipes. Good luck

Mopping wood:

Wring mop thoroughly to apply

Mopping other flooring:

1 cup white vinegar

1 cup baking soda

I dust with microfiber only but here's a dusting spray recipe on a project:

37 years ago I was given a book about uses for vinegar. My mom always used it, so did I and the book was passed around among all my friends at the time. It is amazing how much you can clean with it. Just beware it is not for every surface, so if you are unsure, just Google or ask here.

I agree with Naomie......plain white vinegar is great! And also agree with

being aware the homemade does not always mean it's better. Some products should not go together.

I think I'm relating back to my childhood when I took everything under the kitchen sink and mixed it thinking it would be some new invention of a wonder product. I used it on the face of a black cabinet and ruined the finish. I think I've blocked out the reaction from my parents! Baha!

I think I made paint stripper!

Hi Theresa - We have a bunch of all-natural cleaning product DIYs on our All Natural Living in the Home space on the blog. I'm getting ready to push out an eBook with 10 easy cleaning recipes in the next week or so. Hope this helps. Hugs, Holly

I just use distilled white vinegar right out of the bottle. Cuts soap scum, great for windows and mirrors, use with a nylon scrubby in the oven, etc. And no "making" necessary. If you want, you can always add a little dish detergent at the time you are cleaning.
