The Best Natural Window Cleaner
This is the easiest natural window cleaner and so effective. In a few simple steps you’ll be able to start cleaning with a cleaner that is safe and chemical free.
Why make the swap to natural cleaners?
As most of you have heard most people are trying to be more intentional with what they choose to use in their homes to clean with. The store-bought cleaners may get the job done but have you ever thought about all the chemicals and harsh smells they give off?
They come with all kinds of warning labels and can cause real harm if used incorrectly. When you have tiny hands in your home and even animals it’s important to be aware of what they are exposed to as well as yourself.
I feel like since it’s been the “norm” and the convivence that it provides to buy prepackaged cleaning products from the store we forget to stop and ask ourselves what it is doing to our environment or our bodies.
My Story with Natural Cleaning
I have never thought twice about buying cleaning products from the store before having my little girl. When you have children, your perspective completely shifts (am I right Mama’s?). I was more aware of what we were bringing around her and what foods we were eating.
I went down a rabbit hole of research and couldn’t hardly believe what I was reading! I couldn’t believe more people weren’t concerned or at least talking about a solution to these problems (well, what I thought was a problem).
I am still finding natural cleaning products to swap in my home, and I’ll continue until we don’t have chemicals. It’s important to me to do the best I can for my family. When I found out I could make my own for a fraction of the cost and with things I already have at home I was super excited.
I have put different recipes to the test, and this is my favorite for an all-natural easy DIY window cleaner. You can literally make it in less than three minutes!
Benefits of Natural Swaps in Your Home
There aren’t any downsides to transitioning to a natural home. You will be able to clean around your kids and even have them help you.
You won’t have to breath in harm chemicals and be exposed to known carcinogens. You will save A LOT of money making these products yourself. You can literally make this cleaner for less than a fraction of the cost of what you would buy at the store.
If you are tired of the government not caring about what is used in products, then this is a good first step to take.
