Natural Glass Cleaner

September 10, 2015

My windows have been in much need of a good cleaning.  Windows are typically the very last thing that I think to clean, thus they are often neglected. I’ve been using a vinegar and citrus window cleaner that is super easy to make.   Call me crazy, but there is something about good smelling cleaning products that makes cleaning just a little less horrible.  You could use any citrus type oil in this recipe.  I love the smell of grapefruit (although I don’t like to actually eat it), so that’s what I went with.  Just a little heads up though, when you are making cleaning products and using citrus oils, be sure to use a glass bottle.  I discovered that one of my glass bottles that I recycled from something I purchased at Whole Foods works great.  I just screwed on a sprayer and was good to go.  You could also buy one here from Amazon.

Natural Glass Cleaner

Ingredients

Directions

1. Mix all ingredients together in your glass bottle.
2. Screw on the spray nozzle and give a little shake to make sure everything is combined.
