As I shared in my foaming hand washing post here,
I started creating my own household cleaning products to gain control of what was ingredients my family was exposed to.
This doesn’t have to be an overwhelming process, eliminating each standard household (chemical) product by just replacing each when it finished I believe is the way to go.
I started off sourcing awesome ‘bio, organic, products’ and found some weren’t very effective and others were fantastic!
I then moved to Europe and felt quite overwhelmed by this expensive process again trialing out which products worked, which don’t, reading labels in dutch etc. which is when I decided to experiment with DIY cleaning products.
When it came to DIY If the recipe took too long to make, it wasn’t something I made again (true story)
This glass/window cleaner takes less than 2 minutes to create:
Ingredients:
- 250 mL spray bottle
- 3/4 cup white vinegar
- 1/4 cup distilled water
- 8 drops of any citrus oil of your choice (could use Lemon, Lime, Grapefruit, Wild Orange, or a combination)
Method:
- Add the vinegar to the spray bottle
- Then the 8 drops of essentials oil drops
- Top up with the water and you have yourself a glass cleaner!
You are ready to clean! Shake before use
Enjoy the clear and clean glass/windows without the toxic residue
With love, Jodie
