Household Cleaners

For a long time I’ve been wanting to find good strong cleaner to help get rid of those tough things to get clean.  I mean who doesn’t have little kids that turn your house upside down right after you just finished picking up. I struggled feeling comfortable using store bought cleaners and using it on surfaces that my kids would get into and also worrying about my kids getting into the cleaners themselves. Most of the cleaners you get from the store even after you use them on a surface it recommends rinsing the surface really well because it can get you sick. So after I went to a Relief Society meeting about household cleaners I made my own and and not only did it clean better than any other cleaners I’ve used but also it was made with all natural things that wouldn’t hurt my kids of they got into it. SCORE!! So i want to share them with you

You will need to get tall spray bottles from the Dollar store

I also just use an old towel that I cut up to do most of my cleaning

If you have a hard time with Vinegar smell or just want a yummy smelling thing to clean will you can add any citrus rind in a jar and cover with vinegar and let it sit for 1 week. This will make all of the vinegar smell amazing.
