[@amja210]

My favorite cleaner can be used on everything. This is the recipe - 1cup water 1cup alcohol 1cup vinegar 1 cup peroxide 1 tsp DAWN ( original ) put into dark colored spray bottle ( has to keep light out to keep peroxide active) not the clear or white, the must be colored enough to keep light out. This great it will clean everything plus it is very antimicrobial and anti smell. thank for the essential oil video this is going to help my cleaner

[@rachel_semedo]

What type of alcohol 🍷is it rubbing alcohol?

[@janeray1273]

When I am drying bedding or sleeping garments in the dryer, I add a warm wet wash cloth with 15-20 drops of lavender essential oils to the dryer. Then after the clothes are dry, I take the wash cloth and put it in my night stand to smell while I'll falling asleep. Love it.

[@homoerotic85]

That's actually a good idea!

[@kimlynn50]

Lavender stinks

[@atypicalbeautyguru4129]

Also. My husband owns a Window Cleaning Company (30 years) and they use dish soap and water... about like you would use to wash dishes. He insists on Dawn, but I secretly think it doesn't matter. The dawn cleans the glass and as long as you get it dry and no lint (obviously we use squeegees) but old t-shirts do nicely. Also--the dish soap leaves surfactant on the glass which prevents/slows fogging.

[@hallelujah8141]

@Emily Myrick best to use it just for cleaning windows then! I always rinse my washing up items very well (and live in uk so we don't get 'Dawn' here) I use Ecover washing-up liquid, but 'Fairy' is best for cleaning jobs (it's probably the same as 'Dawn'...😃)

[@marykelly6187]

I have used Dr. Bronners since my old Hippie days. It smells super, cleans great and you can even bathe with it. I know it's not home made but it certainly deserves a mention. And I've used vinegar for years. So Ms. Queen of Clean I am tickled pink you have brought it to the masses. Now alcohol. Thanks. I pour a little in the toilet every night. Then I use my Lysol wipes on sink & toilet everyday. Luv y'all.

[@joywalsh6150]

my linen spray that i use helps to disinfect anti bac my bed and mattress, 1 part water to 1 part witch hazel and then 10 drops lavender and 10 drops tea tree. (can halve the lavebeer and add 5 drops mint) this kills dust mites, mould and that bed smell! refreshes my bed in between the changes and when I strip the bed I spray it all over the mattresses and pillows to air dry! Its a beautiful smell and so nice to burrow into at night!

[@joywalsh6150]

I also use a fine spray bottle, like an empty cosmetics spray bottle or something like that to ensure I'm not saturating everything!

[@cleanmyspace]

Love it!!! Thanks for sharing Joy!

[@thehappycrystal8795]

Joy Walsh thankyou for sharing. im am definitely doing this

[@whitetigess]

Joy Walsh thanks for this one, fresh is always awsome.. ugh i hate any kinda nasty bugs.

[@nasirb3914]

Joy Walsh Thank you so much for sharing!!!

[@michelletate9139]

The linen spray is fantastic. Not only does it smell good but if you are a caregiver for an Alzheimer's parent/patient, it calms them down immediately when they are upset, and it makes putting them to bed so easy! I had been using it for a while and then a friend of mine told me the nursing homes are now using lavender scented patches that they put on the wrists of Alzheimer's patients when they are aggravated and it calms them right down. Cuts down the need for drugs/restraints. I know your focus is on cleaning but I wanted to share because it has this added benefit for caregivers too! You have not only helped me keep my house cleaner while being a caregiver for my father, but my house smells great and he is calmer and happier since I started using the linen spray. I used it for cleaning and had no idea it would have that effect on him. Thank you for the ideas and knowledge you share with us. You have made a huge positive difference in my life and helped being a caregiver a little less stressful. I think you are awesome!

[@Canteluta1022]

White vinegar has been a long-held family cleaner--my great grandmother, grandmother, mother...Old wood floors, dirty wood furniture (diluted, of course), laundry, cutting boards, etc. it's great to see Melissa, that you're using the wisdom of our elders!

[@elainawilliams8987]

I'm so glad you mentioned peppermint oil!!!!! I don't know if anyone else has commented this yet or not, but..... Did you know that peppermint oil can also be used to get rid of bad headaches? OH YES!!!! I MUCH prefer dabbing a couple drops of that on my temples / wrists to popping ibuprofen. I was a little skeptical about it until an employee got me to try it. She said to sniff it a couple times after I dabbed it on, which I did, & I'm telling you, Melissa, not only was my headache GONE within mere minutes, BUT it smelled amazing!!!!!! It's no wonder so many of us LOVE our essential oils! They truly are, essential!

[@askfakhara]

For kitchen countertops I use 2 cups distilled water, 1 tsp dish washing soap and 1 table spoon glycerine. Put in a spray bottle. Shake well. Spray it and wipe it clean with microfibre cloth. For bathrooms (walls, wash basin and WC) 1/2 cup white vinegar, 2 cups warm water, 1tsp dish washing soap, 12 - 15 drops lemon essential oil and 7- 10 drops tea tree essential oil. Put in spray bottle and shake well and use. This is what I use in my house every day. PS: loved the mopping recipe. Will try out tomorrow.

[@barbcvermont7085]

Loved this video! I'm getting more and more into making my own cleaning solutions. I have been loving a recipe I found for a Homemade Daily Shower Cleaner: 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide1/2 cup rubbing alcohol1 tsp dish soap1 Tbsp dishwasher rinse aid2 cups of water Pour the peroxide, rubbing alcohol, dish soap, and rinse aid into a 24oz spray bottle. Then, fill the spray bottle the rest of the way with water. Replace the top of the spray bottle, and slowly tip the bottle back and forth to gently mix the ingredients. The hydrogen peroxide and rubbing alcohol work together to help keep mildew at bay, and the soap and rinse aid fight soap scum. I found this recipe on One Good Thing by Jillee!

[@alicemartz3161]

my favorite cleaning diy is vinegar and dawn dish soap for the shower and tub. my son even called before one of his room inspections (military) asked what I used to get the shower clean. I am hooked on micro clothes and vinegar now and love your videos

[@snehapoorv]

I have saved 2 small old glass white vinegar bottles and I add lemon & orange peel in them with vinegar. Let them infuse for a week or two before first use. They cut the smell and add citrusy touch to it. Use that to replace regular vinegar in the cleaning process.

[@kirstymacfarlane1620]

My husband is just getting over the flu and I'm a few days behind him. Today, Saturday, has been the worse. I thought I felt terrible Tues to Fri, oh no that was the preview! I don't care what I feel like on Sunday but that bed is getting stripped and disinfected! Hopefully I can get up early enough to clean the quilt and get it dried. Then spray the pillows and mattress with some combination of the mentioned oils. If I don't get the quilt washed, then I'll spray it as well. I'm planning on buying a new one in the sales anyway. I'll probably go with lavender, another floral and a citrus because it's my bed I don't want to use peppermint or anything to stimulating and yes I'll be adding lavender in the wash and making your linen spray. Thanks Melissa xxx

[@robintaylor231]

Could you do a print out of your formulas to make up the sprays with essentials like a recipe book for housecleaning

[@pen5532]

Great video as always! I wanted to mention that you might want to research using essential oil around cats. I saw kitty on the bed :). (I have 4 cats, 2 dogs, and i am a certified aromatherpist). Dogs and cats process things differently from people and dogs have limits with essential oils too, but The feline liver works differently and they often can't process essential oils since the oils are about 70% stronger than the actual plants. Some oils are worse than others but all have cautions with cats just like with kids and we elderly. Dogs also have limits with essentials oils. I do use my oils all the time but make sure kitties, and dogs, are in the other room and don't let them in a room where I diffuse.

[@vivianr6406]

I love your diy recipes! I am a proud owner of your book and was making your toilet bowl cleaner. Unfortunately I used the wrong ingredients. A little back story, I had a huge container of baking powder that I had for several years. I Googled what to do with old baking powder, it said baking powder is the same as baking soda except with a couple added ingredients added and old powder could be used like soda because it would be too old for baking. An exception would be when making DIY toilet bowl cleaner. Whatever is in baking powder did not mix with the other ingredients and I had an explosion that rivaled a Mt St Helens all over my kitchen and me. So I learned my lesson, do not substitute ingredients!

[@barbarajames4933]

I am so very glad you posted this, mostly for the comments reminding us how carefully these precious oils must be used. The big offenders are those truly awful plug in burners that create fine ash all over the floor surfaces, those give pets a lot of problems. I think the idea here is to give your house a fresh feel rather than covering one smell with another.

[@trishb7582]

Oh My!! I made the all purpose counter cleaner you showed - seriously it is THE BEST I have ever used !!!! Thank you SO much! Really cleaned left no streaks and smelled great too ❤️❤️

[@kelseyh3996]

I LOLd at your sign that said clean house no fights! it's so true. since my partner and I started a daily and weekly cleaning routine the fights just seemed to stop. You're basically part SME, part relationship counselor. :)

[@wittyange]

I love adding a few drops of lemongrass and/or mint to my floor steamer pad. Makes the floors smell so amazing!

[@gotjammitgurl]

For floors, I make up a similar mixture and keep it in a. spray bottle. I spray the floor liberally, and mop with a dry mop. That way I am not wasting my cleaning solution by contaminating it with a dirty mop, I don't have to put it out, and the mop dries quickly. I really enjoy using the hard wood floor cleaner with the terry cloth. When I'm done, I just take it off and throw it in the wash. Great formulas!!!!

[@lindaortiz6090]

I love you DIY cleaning videos. I learn with you guys the orange peel infused vinegar and I've done it since, not only for the scent but for the degreaser power. Multipurpose I've adapt from yours like a year ago 1/2 cup orange peel infused vinegar, 2 cups of water, 1/2 tbs of dish soap and EO. I've been also using a fabric deodorizer that I learn in Do it on a dime blog, 3 cups of water, 1 1/2 tbs baking soda and 40 drops of EO. smells soooo ooohhh goodddddd!!!! have a nice day.

[@katieelliott7474]

I love how normal and down to earth you are. Your tips are original, not to mention effective and I don't have to spend a fortune. X

[@MariaLuciaGomezGreenberg]

Thank you for your great tips. I got this idea somewhere on KZbin. I recycle and compost as much as possible, but I can't compost citrus peels in my worm composting bin (acidity will kill worms). So, I learned that putting the orange peels in vinegar for a month left the vinegar smelling wonderful for cleaning everything in my house. The vinegar also breaks down the peels so that I can put them in with my grass clippings and they break down faster. Keep motivating me with your cleaning tips, please ;--)

[@yvettevillarreal1021]

I love using vinegar ever since I found Melissa's channel I have never claimed the same again my house is cleaner and I save a lot of money using homemade products thank you Melissa for all your tips it really is useful keep up the good work

[@richellek.2043]

I've made the switch to homemade, natural cleaners and I love them!!! I used peppermint, lemon and tea tree in my cleaners too! Thank you 😊

[@aveureaquest]

Thanks for another awesome video, so full of tips and ideas!!! For linen I use 2 parts water + 1 part rubing alcohol + 15 drops lavender ess.oil + 5 drops peppermint ess.oil. Refreshing and relaxing. Awesome!! For countertops and almost any other surface on the house I use 2 parts water + 1 part rubing alcohol + 1 spoon dish soap + 10 drops lemon ess. oil + 10 drops tea tree oil. By the way, tea tree oil is also very effective for toe and toenail fungus ;,)

I could not believe how easy it was to get the grease off of the stovetop hood with the grapefruit and orange essential oils! Thank you!

[@AB4Jss]

I just use water with white vinegar and it degreases my stovetop & it makes it shiny clean too!

[@colleengilmartin5115]

Absolutely love these tips. Never thought to use my essential oils for CLEANING! I'm making sure to pass this video on to a bunch of my friends. Thanks for the tips.

[@mssixty3426]

I got this general all-purpose cleaning spray recipe from a book I read in the 80's: 2 Qts Water, 2 Cups Clear Ammonia (not sudsy), and 4 Tablespoons dishwashing liquid soap. I combine these in an empty gallon jug, pour some into a spray bottle. It has a strong ammonia smell, but it cleans nearly everything. I use it to get out carpet stains, laundry stains, sanitize counter tops/door handles/light switches. You just have to be careful when using it on walls, it will remove cheap paint.

[@theclassroomdoc]

NOW essential oils that you are using are amazing quality! My favourites are their combinations Morning Sunshine and Cheer Up Buttercup!

[@osamal5]

I don't have a specific diy cleaning recipy but for the essntial oils I loooove the rose Smell and lavendar and white musk when it comes with baby powder smell

[@Barb6106]

Oh this is GREAT! Thanks! Just moved into a fab place but lots of rain got me some ants.. ugh! Not one for chemicals, I researched (QUICKLY!!) safe ant spray. Half and half of 1/4 cup water and white vinegar plus 12 drops spearmint oils... PERFECTION! Sprayed all over..ants gone in minutes! So clean smelling and SAFE!💕

[@loverna00]

I think this is my favorite video from Clean My Space! Thanks!!

[@projectqueen610]

I make a sanitizing spray using about 3/4 c. water 15 drops of orange oil and about 5 drops of peppermint. This was nice when house training our dog. We have purgo floors. it is also useful in the kitchen and bathroom countertops.

[@JahCm]

This video and your video on vinegar and water to rid kitchen of kitchen odors are awesome. Not sure what I have been doing all of these years... I will purchase my essential oils this weekend and mix my cleaners and label appropriately.

[@princessalways4eva]

Awesome video Melissa! I had to save this. I can't tolerate commercial cleaners because of my health. I've tried commercial non toxic cleaners/laundry detergents but they're too expensive. Being a d.i.y. girl I've always used vinegar and baking soda. I love your recipes. Tfs. Hugs-Kristina🤗

[@lorei2004]

I use Tea Tree Oil during the rinse cycle whilst I am doing laundry. I also made a water, vinegar, and 20 drops of the oil to clean my counters!! Swear by it!!!

[@jillinformed]

Love these ideas! I don't like the smell of lavender so I made a linen spray with water, witch hazel (I save my vodka for drinking😉) and 20 drops of lilac essential oils. Sheets smell so wonderful!

[@zoeshears137]

you have to be careful with certain oils around pets but I love using lavendar. I have ocd and it helps to keep me calm and reassure me everything us clean.

[@RebelAlliance42]

my favorite of all time is the dishwash liquid/white vinegar/water solution, I use a high quality dishwash liquid and I use this everywhere! kitchen, bathroom, floors, walls, doors, skirtings, ceilings etc...

[@beckyhopper8162]

I use Thieves Cleaner from Young Living. It is a concentrate. A bottle lasts a long time. The spicy scent of Thieves leaves my house smelling very clean.

[@pattyhanna7851]

[@ulqulqu]

I honestly didn't think I would consider using essential oils for cleaning, I'm definitely going to try it out

[@boorat3573]

I also use vanilla or fabric softener to a spray bottle of water to spray my carpet,bedding etc...to smell awesome!

[@soneill31]

Thank you for this video Melissa! I really enjoyed it 😊. A couple of questions: Do you use distilled water or regular tap water in your DIY cleaners? Does it matter? I REALLY LOVE the "clean laundry" scent, or fragrance, if you will; is there an essential oil or essential oil blend that will replicate that smell for me? Many thanks in advance 😊

[@beasimpson3085]

I love essential oils & use them all over my house. I also use them on my dog to kill fleas. Love your videos, i just found you a couple of weeks ago, been trying to watch all your videos I can find. Keep up the good work, many blessings to you & your hubby

Love this, such helpful info for us beginners! I seem to have a lifetime supply of Mrs Meyers all purpose cleaner basil (which I do like) but I am using essential oils as an air freshener. I add 10 drops to a spray bottle of water and a bit of vinegar, then go around the house and spray it in the air. I bought a variety pack of oils and alternate to find the ones I like best.

[@JessicaSmith-gd1fu]

This week I swapped out my Barkeeper's Friend for straight up baking soda for scrubbing up my stainless steel sink. Worked just as well without the warning label!

[@TheMercymerz]

Andie Dole yup I did the same thing 😀

[@anniemawee]

You can add a few drops of your favorite essential oils to your baking soda too!

[@famlbk]

Yes, baking soda works well. I have used it for 30 years to clean fixtures and stove top.

[@Tonithenightowl]

Andie that may work on stainless steel or ceramic sinks but for porcelain it won't. Believe me I've tried lol Nothing beats BF for this, Bonami is good too. It's also good on acrylics.:o)

I make a similar linen spray. Lavender doesn't make me sleepy unless I combine it with cedarwood. I use equal amount of drops. Here are some of my fave combos if EO- peppermint, lavender and lemon. Bergamot, ylangylang, and lavender, cypress, peppermint, lavender. I have found out that lavender is a great balancer. nice muscle oil combo is wintergreen, peppermint, heliochrysm, and lavender.

[@sandrawhitfield7102]

I bought your Clean My Space book. It is so thorough. I love choosing quick tidying to thorough cleaning, depending on my time. Thanks for the individual room checklists in the back. I appreciate your simple, homemade recipes. My daughter has several organic homemade recipes for cleaning, soaps, cooking. I still want to get this book for her so she has the total cleaning information. Thank you for showing me how to use the essential oils. I do not like lavendar, eucalpytus, tea tree oil. The only one I have found so far is grapefruit. I like fruity scents (and some of my perfume sensual scents, which are not that healthy). I wish there were more essential oil scent choices. Or am I looking in the wrong stores?
