There are 3 environmentally friendly cleaners you can make yourself with ingredients that most of us already have in our homes that can be used to make your own environmentally friendly cleaning products.

Make Your Own Glass Cleaner

Combine these ingredients into a spray bottle:

• 2 cups of water
• 1/2 cup of white vinegar
• 1/4 cup of rubbing alcohol

And 1 to 2 drops of lemon or orange essential oil for a nice smell. Never clean windows on a hot summer day, any solution you use dries too quickly and leaves streaks.

All Purpose Cleaner & Deodorizer

Mix these ingredients together, put on a sponge and wipe away dirt and odours

• 4 tablespoons baking soda
• 1 quart warm water

White Rings Off Of Furniture

This solution works great for those white water rings left behind on our furniture from water.

Combine One part non-gel tooth paste with one part baking soda. With a damp cloth and the mixture and rub with the grain of the wood. Use a dry cloth to wipe off the paste mixture. Buff with a clean soft cloth and then use a furniture polish to brighten it up.

After doing the cleaning chores, try tackling the un-organized basement. We have some great tips to help you get started with that big job.
