Homemade Cleaning Supplies

Window/Glass Cleaner
½ tsp liquid soap
3 tbs vinegar
2 cups water

Mix the 3 ingredients and put into a spray bottle (Save one you have purchased before). When cleaning glass, newspaper works better than paper towels and they are less expensive too!

Laundry Detergent
1 cup soap flakes
½ cup washing soda
½ cup borax

Mix ingredients together.

Toilet Bowl Cleaner
1 cup vinegar

Pour into toilet bowl and let stay overnight. Scour with a toilet bowl brush the next day. (Never mix bleach with other cleansers!)

Furniture Water Spot Remover
Gently apply toothpaste with a soft damp cloth.

Unclogging Drains
1/4 cup baking soda
½ cup vinegar

Pour baking soda down drain then follow it with the vinegar. After fizzing stops flush the drain with boiling water.

All the above recipes came from a site called Frugal Times.  Frugal Times is a great resource for saving money.  You really should go check them out!
