5 Simple Cleaning Recipes to get you Started

I love to make up my own cleaning solutions as they are better for the environment and will save you money. I have popped my 5 favourite homemade cleaners below, all of these once made will last in your cleaning cupboard for up to 3 months.

I use glass spray bottles and label them.

My Magic Shower Spray 

• ¾ fill with water  
• Add 20 ml of white vinegar 
• Drop of washing up liquid 
• A few drops of eucalyptus oil 

My Ultimate Tile Cleaner 

• ¾ fill with water 
• 20ml of rubbing alcohol 
• 20 drops of eucalyptus oil 

Fabulous homemade Fabric Refresher 

• Fill your spray bottle with ¾ water 
• Add a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda 
• 20 drops of your favourite essential oils (you can mix these) 

If using to refresh your mattress i highly recommend adding lavender essential oil as this will help aid sleep.

Toilet Powder Cleaner 

• Add two scoops of bicarbonate of soda to a jug 
• Add one scoop of citric acid 
• 10 drops of your favourite essential oils 

Mix and then pour directly into your toilet.

You can also add the powder into ice cube tray to make toilet bombs and then add to a pretty jar in your bathroom. 

Powerful Disinfectant 

• Half fill your bottle with rubbing alcohol 
• Add 25 ml of white vinegar 
• 25 drops of essential oils (choose one with antibacterial properties such as, citrus, tea tree or eucalyptus 

Do not use this one on granite or marble surfaces.

I get this question a lot around this time of year, so here’s some advice: always read the care labels! They’re there to help. If you’re unsure about the symbols, just scan them with your phone—many apps can explain what they mean.If you accidentally shrink a woollen item, don’t panic! Pop it into warm (not hot or cold) water, and add a lot of fabric conditioner or hair conditioner to help relax the fibres. Every so often, take it out and give it a very gentle stretch.It might not return to its original size, but this trick can make it more wearable again!Have you tried this before?#laundrytips #woolcare #laundryhacks ...
