A couple years ago I made a big change...  I gave away all my standard household cleaners and bought (or made) all natural ones.  Not only are all natural cleaners better for the environment, they are better for your home and your family.  The toxins in standard cleaning products have been linked to cause health problems, including asthma.


My Husband and my daughter both suffer from pet (and many other) allergies and my daughter has allergy induced asthma (something my husband had as a child but has out grown).  It was shocking to learn how harmful cleaners in your house can be.  I take so many precautions to keep our home safe and contaminant free for them but yet, I could be aggravating their symptoms just by cleaning the bathrooms!


I became very ambitious and created a science lab in my kitchen as I mixed, concocted and labeled all my new cleaners. Only problem, some of them didn't work... and I couldn't find recipes for some of the things I needed (i.e. Stainless Steele and Granite polish).




Here are some of my favorite recipes household cleaners:
