Cleaning Tips

13 Sep

Today I’m sharing natural cleaning tips, hacks and recipes from some of my favorite bloggers.

All Natural Cleaning Hacks that Save You Money
 

If you have been around this blog for any length of time you know, when it comes to cleaning, I try to do things naturally… and on a budget. While I have shared many cleaning tips over the years, I found several cleaning hacks I had never tried, so I thought I’d share them with you today.

All Natural Cleaning Tips

Carpet Stain Removal with Water & An Iron

I was SO excited to read this tip!!! A long time ago, I tried out several different methods for carpet stain removal, and the one that ended up working best used ammonia (so stinky). I want to run up and give Ashley a huge hug for this tip. Totally chemical free way to remove carpet stains! Woohoo. Is it weird that I wanna go pour some red wine on my carpet just to try it out?

How to Clean A Stainless Steel Sink

One of my most popular posts is about How to Clean a Porcelain Sink, and I often get asked about what to do with stainless steel. Since I don’t have a stainless steel sink, I could not give a confident reply. Well, Cassie, from The Thrifty Couple, has the answer for you. Thanks Cassie!

Granite Countertop Spray

I love, love, love, the all-purpose spray I use for my kitchen and bathroom countertops, but it contains vinegar, which is not good to use on granite. Patti, from Garden Matter, has a recipe perfect for those of you needing an all natural, DIY, granite countertop cleaner.

Laundry Scent Booster & DIY Dryer Sheets

Becky, at Clean Mama, is my cleaning hero. Seriously, she knows all. While I have done several things to “go green” with my laundry, Becky has a few more tricks up her sleeve.

How to Clean A Vinyl Shower Curtain

Never have I thought to clean my vinyl shower curtains. When the curtain gets moldy, I throw it and buy a new one. But when Kristi, from Chatfield Court, shared how easy (and effectively) you could clean the curtain (and eliminate extra waste), I was sold.

How to Clean Real House Plants with Milk

I can guarantee you this cleaning tip would never have shown up on this blog if it weren’t for Meegan, from Meegan Makes. I cannot keep plants alive. I am dead serious. (Originally this wasn’t intended as a pun, but while proofreading, I realized it was well inserted 🙂 ) I kill everything. Luckily, there is a way to clean up those live plants using something you probably have in your fridge right now. Who knew?

How to Naturally Clean Wool Rugs

If you have wool rugs, and you’re thinking there’s no way to get them clean, think again. Tara, from Lehman Lane, has a great tip for cleaning wool rugs. It’s absolutely free and doesn’t use any chemicals. My kind of cleaning tip!

How to Clean Vintage Finds

I have recently discovered a love for shopping vintage, but sometimes the best treasures are a little dirty and smell a little funky. Daune, from Cottage in the Oaks, has great tips for getting those items cleaned up and smelling great.

How to Naturally Clean Hardwood Floors

I don’t have 120 year old wood floors like Jessica, from Décor Adventures (but I wish I did 🙂 ). I do, however, have hardwood in my kitchen (only, like, 14 years old). I’m not even going to tell you what I use to clean it because Jessica’s idea is probably a much better way to go.

How to Clean White Cabinets

I am experiencing a bit of kitchen envy. I want a white kitchen SO badly. One of my big concerns, however, is how to maintain the white when it comes to all the kitchen grime. Carli, from Fearfully and Wonderfully Made, has a great solution. I just might need to get out my white paint after all.

      Thanks for contributing your “ring around the collar” trick. I’m definitely trying that one out. My husband wears dress shirts every day as well, and I’m always looking for the best way to work out those stains.
