One sure downfall of lockdown is running out of essential cleaning products before you’ve had a chance to replenish them during the weekly shop. With online delivery slots being hard to come by, there are many household products that you can make at home. Simple ingredients like vinegar, bicarb and even lemon juice can make up some pretty potent blends. Here are some of our favourites.
1 L of Hot Water
½ a Lemon
¼ cup of White Vinegar
Method: Just mix it all together and place in a spray bottle to use when you like.
10 Drops of Lavender Oil
¾ cup of Bicarbonate of Soda
¾ cup of White Vinegar
Method: Blend well and leave in a spray bottle or trigger bottle from a finished bottle of cleaning product. Just make sure you rinse it out first.
1 Tablespoon of Corn Flour
¼ cup of White Vinegar
Method: Mix together and place in a spray bottle and shake well before use.
