Okay, so the title may be a little misleading, but did I get your attention?
One thing we have really focused on to make our home eco-friendly and create less waste is going green with our cleaning supplies. Here's the breakdown:
Green Cleaning must-haves:
*Vinegar- great for just about everything
*Baking soda- for scrubbing
*Tea tree essential oil- disinfectant (great for the bathroom)
*Lavender essential oil- disinfectant, smells great!
*Lemon
*Castille soap
*Steam mop- I absolutely love my steam mop!
