When you visit my home, you’ll know that my husband and I are “clean freaks”. Just because I’m a clean freak, doesn’t mean I can’t clean naturally.
In my last post I shared how I moved from cleaning with chemicals to natural cleaning.
(Yes. I spent one Saturday morning tossing all my chemical cleaners into the trash) replacing them with natural alternatives.
I want to share with you some tried and true recipes that I use to clean our home naturally and save money too!

I use this one on my cook top!
