Best DIY All Purpose Kitchen and Bathroom Spray, Tub Scrub and Window Cleaner Recipes

Read article : Best DIY All Purpose Kitchen and Bathroom Spray, Tub Scrub and Window Cleaner Recipes

Over the past two years, I have begun weeding out more and more of my expensive and toxic household cleaners and replacing them with homemade substitutes that work as well, or even better.  You’ve all probably seen my homemade laundry detergent recipe (20.4¢ for homemade vs. $12-$14 retail) and I’ve recently added a homemade “shout” laundry stain remover recipe (now tested successfully on both colors and whites, by the way.)  Even our liquid hand soap has been replaced by my homemade foaming soap version.  Why would I go to the time and trouble of making these products at home?  Cold hard cash!  They can all be made for pennies on the dollar, when compared to what you are spending to buy them at the store.  Plus, they don’t actually take that long to make — some only a few minutes!

Beyond that, homemade cleaners, made with natural products, are better for the environment and exponentially better for your family’s safety and health.  The chemicals and ingredients (and their fumes) in typical household cleaners can be terribly dangerous and many build up in our systems over decades of use.  Even liquid hand soap, many shower gels, lotions, face soaps and dish soaps, sadly, even many toothpastes, now contain the “antibacterial” ingredient, triclosan.   In my opinion, you wouldn’t need to read more than one or two articles about this pesticide, before you would refuse to expose your home and family to it, but that’s a post for another day.  🙂 With homemade cleaners, you can be confident you are providing the safest and most economical options for your family because you know exactly what you’ve put in them.  It makes sense for your health, your budget and the environment.

I needed to make a quick Walmart run to restock a few ingredients to make my favorite DIY cleaning products.  The most critical need was for vinegar.  I was completely out.  You are welcome to check out my whole shopping trip in this Google+ album.

My local grocery store offers a great variety of vinegars for all my cooking needs, plus the white vinegar I like to use in my homemade cleaning supplies.

One of the most commonly used ingredients in making your own household cleaners and even personal care products is vinegar.  Raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar has some incredible health benefits, that we can discuss at another time, but today, I want to talk about white vinegar.  White vinegar is readily available and very inexpensive, usually around $2.50 a gallon, in our area.  I was excited to see that Heinz is marketing a cleaning strength white vinegar, now, with a slightly higher acidity (6% as opposed to 5%) than standard white vinegars.  This little boost in acidity, adds extra oomph and effectiveness to my homemade cleaning products without a noticeable increase in cost.  Score!

Heinz Cleaning Vinegar" src="http://www.busy-at-home.com/images/vinegar/08-cleaningvinegar.jpg" alt="cleaning vinegar" width="533" height="400" />

Only $2.98 for a whole gallon. That will make tons of “just for pennies” cleaning supplies!

If you haven’t cleaned with vinegar, before, you’re missing out on a very effective multi-purpose cleaner or cleaning ingredient.  For those just getting started with natural cleaning supplies, the biggest objection to vinegar is usually that they are afraid their home will smell like vinegar.  Honestly, you don’t notice the smell unless you are using it straight, and even then, that vinegar fragrance dissipates pretty quickly.  But, you can try this great tip I found over at Frugal Freebies for scenting your vinegar and then you won’t have to worry about it at all!

There are literally hundreds of uses for vinegar, some pretty well known, others may be new to you. For instance, did you know that not only is vinegar good for taking the itch out of bug bites, if you put it in a spray bottle and spritz it on your skin, the smell will go away in a few minutes, but you will be protected from bug bites for the rest of the evening?  Nothing could smell worse or be worse for you than the commercial bug repellents being sold, now.  I’m so excited to try this, next summer!   Along the same vein, pouring vinegar around the outside of your kids’ backyard pool will keep flies and pests away and if you do the same around the children’s sandbox, not only will it repel bugs, but it will keep neighborhood cats from using it as a litterbox.  I hate that!  This is such a good idea.

Of course, vinegar is one of the most commonly used natural cleaners for glass, mirrors and windows.  My problem has always been that I still ended up with streaks when using it straight.  Then I read Andrea’s post, over at Simple Organized Living.  Her glass cleaner still utilizes the acidity of vinegar for super cleaning and degreasing, but with the addition of a couple other ingredients, leaves glass sparkling and streak-free!  

Window & Glass Cleaner

Ingredients

• 2 c. water
• ¼ cup vinegar
• ¼ cup rubbing alcohol
• 1 Tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

1. 
2. Mix all ingredients by pouring them into a spray bottle, replacing the lid and then shaking. You definitely need to shake this, again, before each use, because the cornstarch will settle to the bottom, but you will have sparkling clean, streak-free windows for pennies!
3. Here's my mirror before cleaning with my homemade window cleaner. I had no idea how hard it is to take a picture of a mirror and have the schmutz actually show up, but it's there -- all the smudges and spots there in the center.
   
4. And here's the after, with fingerprints, smudges and spots cleared away and the mirror completely streak-free!

Did you know that using a cotton ball to blot vinegar on cold sores will help dry them up?  Mix one part vinegar with 10 parts water and apply it in the same way, to help clear up acne.  Apparently, even warts can be treated by dotting a small drop of vinegar onto the pad of a bandage and then applying directly to the wart.  Replace the bandage each evening, for 7 days, and the wart should be gone.

When it comes to cleaning your house, there are even more practical uses for vinegar:

1. Use in the laundry to soften clothes and reduce static cling.  Just pour it into the fabric softener dispenser in your machine.  The vinegar smell has never been in our clean clothes, afterward.
2. I use white vinegar to clean the tub of my washing machine, by adding vinegar to the fill line in my soap dispenser and then running the cleaning cycle.
3. Vinegar is food safe, so there are many ways to use it in the kitchen, like cleaning the inside walls, shelves and drawers of your refrigerator.  You can also use a solution of 1 part vinegar, to 1 part water, to safely clean the residue from fruits and vegetables.
4. Use white vinegar in your dishwasher, in place of Jet Dry, to eliminate water spots and help rinse away soap residue.
5. Use vinegar as one of the ingredients to make your own bathroom cleaners.  These are my two most favorite recipes for cleaners that disinfect and clean like crazy in the bathroom.  Love them!

All-Purpose Kitchen and Bathroom Spray Cleaner

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon Borax
• 1 teaspoon finely grated Fels Naptha
• 2 cups boiling water
• 2 tablespoons white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon castile soap
• 18 drops lavender essential oil
• 5 drops tea tree oil

…

I found this next recipe over at Cajun Joie De Vivre  and it is definitely a keeper!  I have changed very little, but the recipe below is how I make it.  I use it for tough lime, soap scum build up and other stains in the bathroom; and I actually use it on my kitchen sink, too!  It works better than any commercial bathroom cleanser I have ever tried and its so inexpensive to make, requiring only small amounts of ingredients that I always have on hand, because I use them in many other cleaning supply recipes, as well.  This is another staple, that will make cleaning your bathroom so much easier!

…

Tub and Shower Scrub

Ingredients

• 1 cup baking soda
• ⅓ cup white vinegar
• ½ cup Castile soap
• ¼ cup washing soda
• 1 Tablespoon coconut oil
• 1 Tablespoon salt
• 10 drops Germ Fighter essential oil
  

Instructions

1. Mix baking soda, salt and washing soda.
   
2. Stir in the vinegar and allow it to foam up and then settle back down.
3. Add coconut oil, castile soap and essential oils.
   
4. Mix until all ingredients are combined. The mixture will be moist, but crumbly. Pack into a container with a tight-fitting lid.
   
5. To use, spritz the affected area with the spray bathroom cleaner, from the recipe above, or with water. Let it set for a couple of minutes and then sprinkle a small amount of this scrub on a damp cloth to clean built-up soap scum, hard water or lime deposits and other tough stains.
6. The power of this inexpensive, all-natural cleaner is evident in the picture, below. The left side has already been scrubbed and the right is about to be. When I first discovered this formula, the author wrote that I would be scrubbing off build-up that previous cleaners left behind and I didn't even know was there, until I started scrubbing with this one. She understated the issue!

…

For the purposes of economical, ecologically sound and effective DIY household cleaners, white vinegar will be a must in your cleaning arsenal.  I think Heinz Cleaning Vinegar provides the best value and cleaning power for the money spent and it will be a staple under my kitchen cabinet.

My bathroom was one of those areas of my new apartment that needed a little love. So I decided to give it an easy bathroom refresh!

Check out all the details below, plus enter for the chance to win a $100 Target GiftCard!

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="1172" />

I love my new apartment, but the bathroom has been a challenge to decorate. There’s nothing wrong with it … it’s just very brown and boring.

Here are some before photos to give you an idea what I’m talking about.

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! BEFORE | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="843" />I hesitate to complain too much, because it’s actually a very nice, spacious bathroom. There’s tons of storage space, a big counter, and even a convenient utility closet.

There’s just so much brown! The walls are beige, the cabinets are dark brown, the counters are brown … the list goes on. My ideal bathroom is all white (tiles, towels, etc.), and this is pretty much the opposite of that.

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! BEFORE | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="956" />When we first moved in, I hung up my white shower curtain and towels and hoped to call it a day. It was just so boring though.

To me, fall is the perfect time for a simple home decor or organizing project. Everyone’s heading back to school, the weather’s cooling off, and a little change feels good.

I love nothing more than a quick makeover, and nothing in my bathroom popped, if you know what I mean! It was time for an easy bathroom refresh, and I decided to add some color.

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! BEFORE | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="936" />On a whim, I purchased the printed shower curtain below a few months after moving in. Blue and white is a favorite color combo of mine, and it’s the perfect way to counteract all that brown. The curtain was the inspiration for my easy bathroom refresh.

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="936" />I’m a firm believer that small updates, like buying the right toilet paper, can have a mega impact. There’s nothing worse than wasting  the weekend running errands, which is why I love Quilted Northern Ultra Soft & Strong® (Mega Rolls). Each roll has four times the toilet paper in one mega roll, and more toilet paper equals fewer errands!

While I was at Target picking up the Quilted Northern paper, I spent some looking for fun bathroom accessories. I ended up getting a cushy new bath mat, a cute patterned hand towel, and a bold blue soap dispenser … all of which coordinated perfectly with my shower curtain.

When I got home, I shopped my home for more bathroom accessories. Do you ever do that? I found a couple prints and some blue and white ceramics that worked perfectly.

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="952" />The first step in my easy bathroom refresh was adding art. This alone had a huge impact.

My husband and I purchased these prints at the Alameda Flea Market way back when we lived in San Francisco. The prints were super affordable, and a couple Target frames was all it took to make them look like expensive watercolors.

I love adding art to neglected spaces like the bathroom. It’s an easy and inexpensive way to add character to an overlooked room.

It’s very long, and we have plenty of cabinet space to store our stuff, so I like to keep it mostly clear.

To break up the brown counter a bit, I added a few blue and white decorative objects on one end. These came from a thrift store years ago, so they were a bargain, too. Keep an eye out the next time you go thrifting for similar items!Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="936" />I also replaced my white soap dispenser that was looking a little worse for wear with a vibrant new blue one. Doesn’t it look great with my colorful shower curtain?

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="936" />Next to the counter, I hung up a new patterned towel, also from Target.

I’m kind of obsessed with this pretty towel! It’s still a white towel like I love, but the beautiful pattern takes it to another level.

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="936" />You can see already how just a few changes totally perked up my bathroom counter!

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="442" />This cushy bath mat from Target might be my favorite new addition. It’s so comfortable, and it’s much larger than my old mat. Plus, it looks great with my patterned shower curtain.

Easy Bathroom Refresh ... get my easy and affordable tips and tricks for giving your boring bathroom a makeover! | Hello Little Home" width="624" height="936" />Hanging a roll of the Quilted Northern Ultra Soft & Strong (Mega Rolls) was the finishing touch. With these four in one mega rolls, you can forget about refilling the roll for longer periods of time. And that means less time spent running errands and more time for fun stuff, like redecorating!

These mega rolls are always in style, every bit as comfortable, and designed to give you more … who doesn’t love that?

If you’re stuck with a boring, brown bathroom like me, try adding colorful new accessories. It’s amazing the impact a few simple changes can make!

Blue was the perfect choice here. It adds a little coolness to the space, yet complements the brown perfectly.

I love how the art livens up this corner!

I live in a loft that was converted from an office building/department store. When the developers revamped the building, they turned some of the old office doors into sliding doors like in our bathroom. There’s even a mail slot in the door!
