When you are spring cleaning it’s easy to go through an entire roll of paper towels. Instead, use reusable cloths when you can and save your paper towels for dirty jobs like cleaning the toilet.
Whenever you are doing a lot of cleaning and using a lot of cleaners, make sure you open the windows to let in fresh air.
Essential oils have great cleaning properties that can help give your homemade cleaners an extra boost! In addition to using them for cleaning, you can also use them to give some of your unpleasant smelling cleaners a nice clean scent. I use this method whenever I’m mixing up a cleaner with vinegar in it. If you want to know more about how we use essential oils in our home, check out this post.
No matter what your reason for wanting to clean your home naturally this spring, I hope these tips have helped make it possible!
