Homemade General Purpose cleaner

Tuesday 31 May 2011



As I have run out of my cleaners here at home I have started replacing them with homemade ones and this week I have made a batch of general purpose cleaning spray and am delighted with it's effectiveness. And it smells delicious to boot!

1 tsp borax
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 cups boiling water
15 drops lavender essential oil
15 drops lemon essential oil

Add borax to boiling water and stir until dissolved, add vinegar and when cool decant into your spray bottle and add the essential oils. You can add whatever essential oils you prefer but this is my favourite mix. I found the recipe here. As an added bonus I had all the ingredients on hand so it cost me zip!

Have a great day!
