Looking to cut down on harsh chemicals in your home? One of the easiest places to start is with your cleaning supplies. Commercial cleaners often contain synthetic fragrances, dyes, and other irritating ingredients. With just a few simple ingredients you probably already have on hand, you can create a natural, effective cleaner in just minutes. Here’s an easy DIY recipe that’s gentle on your home, safe for your family, and better for the planet.

‍

Natural Cleaner Recipe

● 1/2 Cup of Filtered Water

● 1/2 Cup of White Vinegar

● A Few Drops of Your Favorite Essential Oil

‍

Customize with Essential Oils

Essential oils not only add a pleasant scent to your cleaner, but many also offer natural antibacterial properties. For a fresh and bright scent that's perfect for tackling kitchen messes, try a combination of lemon and tea tree oils. If you'd like a calming, spa-like atmosphere in the bathroom, lavender, and eucalyptus, make a relaxing pair. Peppermint oil delivers a cool, refreshing aroma for an energizing, all-purpose cleaner.

How to Use It

Simply mix the ingredients into a reusable spray bottle and shake gently before each use. Use to clean: 

‍

● Countertops *except natural stones like granite or marble

● Glass and Mirrors

● Sinks and Faucets

● Bathroom Surfaces

Why Filtered Water Matters

It’s a small switch that makes a big difference. Filtered water removes impurities like chlorine, heavy metals, and minerals that can leave streaks and build-up. That means a more effective clean for your home surfaces without the contaminants.
