DIY:: Shiny Eco Friendly Glass Cleaner

I have decided I want to start making my own cleaning supplies. I think it will be much more economical and I can use the same spray bottles over and over again. The first product that I have made is my own glass cleaner. I am really excited about it and it seems to work really well. I love that it leaves everything clean and shiny. Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Ingredients:

1 Cup Rubbing (Isopropyl) Alcohol

1 Cup Water

1 Tablespoon Organic White Vinegar

2 drops of Lemongrass Essential Oil

Directions:

* Mix all ingredients together in a spray bottle.

P.S. Please remember to use a reusable cloth.

What natural cleaners do you make to clean your home?

Ooh, this is a great idea! Thanks for sharing. I HATE harsh chemicals because I have really sensitive skin, and whenever I rinse out my sponge I always wonder how many little creatures will die because I'm introducing these harsh chemicals back into nature...
