Dishwasher Rince Aid

Use white vinegar instead of rinse aid

Save money & the environment

It really works!!

My dishes are better than when i used regular rinse aids!

                        It helps keep the dishwasher clean too!

Homemade Bleach

In a spray bottle mix 

Vinegar just less than half

Push to half with peroxide 

squeeze in juice of a lemon 

fill the rest up with water

You can use this anywhere 

safe around kids & pets

I like to spray it in my shower after use like an after shower spray

or in my kitchen its super safe & no bleach spots on my clothes !

Carpet Cleaning Alternative

in a bowl pour in 1/2 cup water &1/2 cup vinegar

Slowly add 1/2 cup baking soda letting the fizz stop before you add more

dampen spot with rag

 let set (sometimes you can just watch it disappear !)

scrub up spot 

hopefully you wont need to clean the rest of your carpet to match the clean spot

but if you do sprinkle baking soda evenly on your carpet, brush it in.

spray water & vinegar all over the area 

brush & spray until desired results

let dry  brush & vacuum

Done! you now have a clean carpet for super cheap no weird chemicals

& dirt wont stick to the carpet as much after use  unlike other cleaners

so u can keep your carpet cleaner!

safe to use with crawling babies !
