While I was waiting to pick up my new glasses yesterday, I found this article in Womans Day. If you should ever run out of a cleaning product, here are some suggestions from “The Joy of Green Cleaning”.
Furniture polish – instead use olive oil, white vinegar and lemon juice. Combine 1/4 cup of each, pour some onto a soft cloth. Spritzing the solution directly onto furniture can discolor it.
Fabric refeshing spray – instead use vodka. To avoid an alcohol odor, mix the vodka in a spray bottle – even parts water (no olives). Great odor eliminating power. Never use near an open flame.
Glass cleaner – instead use white vinegar and dish soap. Mix 1 tsp soap with 1/3 cup vinegar and 3 cups water. Apply with a microfiber cloth and let the surface air-dry for a streakfree shine.
Dry sweeping cloths – instead use paper towels. Pop a towel onto the end of your mop just as you would the dry cloth.
