All Purpose Spray

This is another gem I learned at Tracey's workshop at Grassroots.

The all purpose spray.

This recipe, like the creamy soft scrub is from Women's Voices of the Earth.

It's so easy to make:

2 cups of white vinegar

2 cups of water

20-30 drops essential oil of your choice

Really you just take whatever spray bottle you have in the house, fill half of it with white vinegar, half with water and drop your essential oil of choice in it. I use lavender (for everything). Peppermint and lemon is nice too!

Note: If you have cats, don't use peppermint.

I use it on every surface that can be wiped like my counters, dining table, sink, stove, mirrors, windows etc. It also is great as an air freshener. Yup. I just spray it on my table, wipe it off and then spray some in the air. It's wonderful. A true all purpose cleaner.

What's great about this is that both vinegar and essential oils are naturally antibacterial. If you want it to kill some germies, just spray it on the surface of choice, let it sit for a 1-5 minutes and wipe. No more need for bleach folks, this does it for you.

If I heard right, this only cost 17 cents to make.

Can't go wrong folks! We use ours everyday, multiple times a day. Lasts a long time and smells and works amazing.

I highly recommend trying and using all the recipes in this link, they work great and are so easy to make yourself.

The ingredients can be found at your local grocery store or bulk store. You probably already have them in your kitchen. Whatever I can't find I just get it from either Tracey or Grassroots. They both carry DIY things in bulk. It's so handy.
