Easy Green Cleaners Recipes

I am starting to make my own cleaners at home now!! I found some pretty easy recipes in The Green Scene, little mailer mag that goes out to homes here in the city, put out by Metro

Glass Cleaner:

Combine 1 quart warm water with 1/4 cup white vinegar or 2 tablespoons lemon juice. (use both vinegar and lemon if you want the cleaning abilities of vinegar with the scent of lemon!) For a pleasant scents, add a drop of two of essential oil...

Tub & Tile Cleaner:


1 2/3 cups baking soda
1/2 cup liquid soap
2 tablespoons vinegar
1/2 cup water
a few drops of essential oils (optional)

Mix soda and soap. Add water, then add vinegar. Store in a squirt-top bottle and shake before using. Rinse thoroughly to avoide leaving a residue.

I have found both recipes to be great cleaners. It's a great way to save money on cleaning supplies and then use that savings to buy organic food.
