The Natural~~~~~~~~~~~~ (The Non-Robert Redford Variety)

Lately I have been researching and using more natural methods to clean my home.
I have become more and more impressed with what I am seeing and finding.
It excites the cleaning side of my messy little heart.
Here are some things I have discovered
 1. How to get crayon off of walls and doors
Mix baking soda and water together and create a very thick paste.
Toothpaste consistency I think would work very well.
Using a washcloth rub the marks, and follow with a rinse of water.
This seriously works! Almost zero effort on my part.
2. Super carpet stain remover
Sprinkle dry baking soda on your stain and then wet a washcloth with vinegar and rub into stain.
Allow to sit for a few moments
Rinse out your wash cloth and repeat till stain is gone.
I promise you success! We just did this one yesterday.
3. Super dish cleaner
In a small cup add equal parts peroxide, dish soap and baking soda.
You can clean a casserole pan in moments. I used this on my tarnished tea kettle and now it looks amazing.
4. General Cleaner
Vinegar, Water and a few drops of Mint extract.
I make this solution up and just go around scrubbing the high-chair, table, walls and doors.
The vinegar smell goes away, I promise! My husband can attest that our home does not smell like vinegar.
 I encourage you to try these ideas out in your home, you just might find a new best friend in home-cleansers. Plus, these things cost pennies and we all need those these days.
If you have any ideas about natural cleaning feel free to leave a comment.

I love my vinegar water! I have two different solutions...one for general cleaning ( that is stronger) and one for my wood floors! Excited to try your other cleaners...
