I started replacing household cleansers with homemade stuff a few months ago and don’t plan on going back to the chemical soup that we have been led to believe we simply must have.

To clean windows and countertops use water, vinegar, and dish detergent, for example.

I just used this recipe for furniture polish yesterday and it really works.

I believe the fewer chemicals we use in our everyday life the better off we are.
