ALL PURPOSE CLEANER
Making your own all purpose cleaner at home is a great way to avoid harsh chemicals found in most household cleaners. This recipe is great for kitchens, bathrooms, floors and any other washable surface. Besides being a healthier option, it is also much more cost effective because you can make many bottles of cleaner for a fraction of the price you would pay for store-bough cleaners. The best part is, you probably have most of the ingredients in your home already!
This recipe is very simple and is a great product to help cut grease and disinfect surfaces. It is my new favorite cleaner and I keep testing it out all over my house. The baking soda cleans and deodorizes, the vinegar will cut grease and remove build up, the castille soap will add an additional cleaning element, and the lemon will add a fresh scent and help fight bacteria. Castille soap is a great soap to keep on hand because of it's many uses (hand soap, body soap, laundry detergent, etc.), so look for it in some of my other household and beauty recipes!
