How to Make Cleaning Spray

Making your own cleaning spray is a simple and economical way to keep your home clean and fresh. Here's a basic recipe for an all-purpose cleaner:

Ingredients:

* 2 cups of distilled water

* 1/4 cup of white vinegar

* 1/4 cup of rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol)

* 1 teaspoon of dish soap

* 10-15 drops of essential oil (optional for fragrance)

Instructions:

1. Gather your ingredients and supplies. You'll need a spray bottle, a funnel, and a measuring cup.

2. Mix the ingredients in the spray bottle. Add the water, vinegar, rubbing alcohol, and dish soap to the spray bottle.

3. Add essential oils (optional). If you want your cleaning spray to have a nice fragrance, add 10-15 drops of your favorite essential oil.

4. Shake the spray bottle. Shake the spray bottle vigorously to combine the ingredients.

5. Clean! Use your cleaning spray to clean surfaces in your home, such as countertops, tables, chairs, and appliances. Always test the spray on a small, inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn't damage the surface.

Notes:

* Distilled water is recommended to prevent mineral buildup in the spray bottle.

* White vinegar is a natural cleaning agent that helps to remove dirt and grime.

* Rubbing alcohol helps to disinfect surfaces.

* Dish soap helps to degrease surfaces.

* Essential oils are optional but can add a nice fragrance to your cleaning spray.

Here are some additional tips for using your cleaning spray:

* Always test the spray on a small, inconspicuous area first to make sure it doesn't damage the surface.

* Avoid using the cleaning spray on delicate surfaces, such as silk or wool.

* Rinse surfaces with water after cleaning them with the spray.

* Store the cleaning spray in a cool, dark place.

* To make a stronger cleaning spray, increase the amount of vinegar and rubbing alcohol.

* To make a milder cleaning spray, increase the amount of water.
