My Favorite DIY ingredients for Cleaning!


I used to think making my own cleaning products was too hard to do, 
too time consuming, and they wouldn't be effective cleaners.  

Then I tried a few recipes and found that not only were they quick and easy, 
but they were very effective, smelled WAY better than the cleaners I had been using, 
and they did not negatively affect my body.   Win, win, win, win!

Now I am a seasoned DIYer, and I love being in total control over every product in my home!

These are some of the products I buy that help make the recipes that I use to clean my whole house.
I keep these on hand, and whenever I get low, I can easily whip up a new batch of whichever cleaning product I need.    
As you can see, I am a bulk buyer - but since these are my only cleaners and are very versatile, 
I've got to save $$ AND have them available at all times!  

I would love to hear how you love these products, too.  
I am always learning, so let me know if you have a product you love, too - I will check it out!


Erika

Baking Soda - Aluminum Free

Baking Soda is so useful for all sorts of cleaning projects!  I get it by the gallon!  
This is way more cost-effective than buying it in small, aluminum-free containers.
This can also be used for cooking and is amazing!

Baking Soda - Aluminum Free

I also get this kind - it just depends on which is cheaper - but they are both quality.  
This can also be used for cooking!




Borax


As you can see, I like Earthborn Elements, and I like saving $$, too.  
Borax is an ingredient that I use a lot, as well.  I get it by the gallon!

Washing Soda
 
 

This is great to use for laundry and other recipes!  

Citric Acid

I use citric acid to make dishwasher detergent!
I also love that the Earthborn Elements buckets all stack neatly.



Thieves Household Cleaner

Thieves Household cleaner is an integral part of the majority of my cleaning recipes.  
I cannot live without it!  Bonus - because it is a concentrate, it is more cost effective than any other cleaner!



Thieves Laundry Detergent

Thieves laundry detergent is fantastic by itself, and is a great money saver when you use it to boost home-made laundry detergent.

Vinegar


I get super-concentrated vinegar and dilute it according to my needs.  This is extremely strong.  Be careful not to get it on your skin.  






Castille Soap

 
Castille soap is another staple in my house!  I get the unscented - that way I can add in my own high quality essential oils and create many different scents.


Roller Bottles

I use roller bottles for so many things!  I like having both brown and colored rollers for different applications - it helps me tell my recipes apart at a glance.  I like how Esarora adds useful tools as well.  

 

Pretty Roller Bottles - 10 mL - Esarora - 24 pk


Glass Spray Bottles

I use these glass spray bottles for many different recipes. 
The set is a great place to start.  Many times I buy for a class 
I am teaching, or for gift giving, so I like the single size packs, too.




I have done a lot of research about essential oils since 2002.  I have tried many different brands, side by side comparisons.  
The brand I recommend as the most potent,  pure, and effective for all applications is Young Living Essential oils.
