Blog: How to make a Green Cleaning Kit
There are so many good reasons to start cleaning green. It costs less than using conventional cleaners, its kinder to the environment, and its non-toxic so kinder to your body too!
You only need a few basic ingredients to clean the whole house.
What you need:
Baking Soda - abrasive, water soluble and anti-fungal
White Vinegar - a deodoriser and sanitiser
Liquid Castille Soap
Tea Tree Oil - anti-fungal, antiseptic
Salt
Spray Bottles
Creme Cleaner
1/2 cup Baking Soda
Liquid Castille Soap
Mix the two together to a texture like frosting.
Great on baths, showers and handbasins.
All purpose Spray Cleaner
Fill a spray bottle with half white vinegar and half water. This is also a good floor cleaner.
Mould Killer
2 tsp Tea Tree Oil
2 cups Water
Shake together in a spray bottle and spray onto mould in showers, on walls, ceilings . . . in fact pretty much anywhere!
Window Cleaner
1/2 tsp Castille Soap
3 T White Vinegar
2 cups Water
Microwave Cleaner
1/2 cup White Vinegar
1/2 cup Water
Bring to the boil in the microwave. Baked on food will be loosened so you can easily wipe it off and the microwave will be deodorised.
Toilet Cleaner
1/4 cup Baking Soda
1 cup White Vinegar
Sprinkle Baking Soda around toilet bowl. Pour over White vinegar. Scrub with a toilet brush.
Oven Cleaner
3/4 cup Baking Soda
1/4 cup Salt
1/4 cup Water
Mix ingredients to a thick paste. Moisten oven surfaces with a damp cloth. Spread paste over oven surfaces. Leave overnight, then remove with a spatula and wipe clean.

Blog: Looking for ways to be more frugal
Hi. I am new here and would like to know more ways to be frugal. I am not one to buy fancy or expensive things but am always willing to know how to save more money.
