For all of you mommys out there especially the new ones like me do you really want your baby crawling on floors with dried chemicals that say do not ingest and have your baby putting their hands in their mouths after they have touched this? NO THANK YOU! You might as well just hand them the bottle!!!
all Purpose cleaner
2 lemons
1 Jar
vinegar (enough to fill the jar 3/4 of the way)
water (enough to fill the remainder of the jar leaving approximately an inch and a half from the top)
cut up your lemon into slices and thin wedges
place lemons in the bottom of the jar
put the vinegar in and the water
shake and place in the fridge for about 2-3 weeks
after all of the scents have had a chance to combine mix the solution about half and half with water to dilute just a little more then transfer to a spray bottle.
once the vinegar has dried you will be left with the beautiful scent of the lemons
HINT: For an extra twist add a few sachets of lavender flowers by placing the flowers in a cheese cloth and placing them in the jar with the lemons OR you can boil the lavender flowers with the water you will be using to fill the remainder of the jar.
Floor Cleaner
a few cups of vinegar
3 lemons (Juiced without pulp)
a pot (to boil the ingredients)
water to fill the pot
place the vinegar water and lemon juice in the pot boil for a few minutes and put straight into the mop bucket use right away the boiling water will help get all of the germs and dirt up mopping away all of the negative!
Dusting cloth
2 Lemon
1 Dusting Cloth
1 Jar
cut the lemon into pieces and peel (only use the peel of the lemon)
place a piece of lemon peel in the jar
put part of the cloth in the jar and keep layering the peel and the cloth so that the lemon soaks into the cloth without being wet but still slightly damp so that it will collect the dust and leave behind a refreshing scent of lemon!
How to use lemons to clean your bathroom and Kitchen taps
Use the outside of the Lemons you squeezed earlier on to make the floor cleaner.
Rub them on the taps scrubbing with the lemon if necessary then take a cloth and wipe off the juices from the lemon and you are left with beautifully shinny metal taps!
This will get off any water marks are soap scums!!
HINT: By chance the soap scum isn't coming off very easy take some baking soda and place on the juicy part of the lemon and start scrubbing this will defiantly take off the rest of the yucky scum!
