We have been slowly replacing our old cleaners with cheaper, green alternatives. We even stopped buying paper towels, and bought reuseable zwipes wipes which work great!

I already use homemade laundry detergent and have been wanting to use other homemade cleaning products, as we are on the quest to elminate chemicals and artificials from our household. Thank you! =)

It’s been going great so far and we too have use frugallysustainable.com as one of our go to sites. The other one being thehealthybeehive.com which is another goody!
Good luck in your Green Endeavors!

(i use norwex, but i;ve heard of other good ones as well)

Steen Thu, 06 Sep 2012 19:48:04 +0000 http://www.thirstiesbaby.com/blog/?p=3200#comment-18206 I’ve been using vinegar and hydrogen peroxide for over a year now and love not having a pile of cleaners under my sink! We are hoping to get a new dishwasher before the next baby comes in November, so thanks for the link to the recipe. I hope it works!

I may (slowly) follow suit. Trying to do mostly vinegar and baking soda based cleaning now. Have to admit that I will prrooobbbaaabbblllyyyy finish the bottle of pine sol that I have. (It has such a great smell!) Thanks for the links.

That’s one that we can’t live without either and I would love to know/learn how to make it…as long as it doesn’t require a chemistry degree! ;-)

It’s a little bit hard for us to gather enough money together to buy all of the necessary ingredients right now, though, so I found an easy way to start with this link I found on pinterest: http://www.littlebrickranch.com/2011/04/what-is-wet-pink-and-gross-all-over.html

Basically, you just soak some orange peels in vinegar for 2 weeks, dilute it in a spray bottle and bam! You have an extremely cheap, natural, all-purpose cleaner! I’m excited to try it!

Good luck on your natural cleaning adventures!

Ever since my daughter was born, I’ve been more and more concerned about the chemicals that are in our apartment.
