Have you ever looked at the list of ingredients on the back of many store bought cleaning products? I don't know about you, but I have no idea what half, or more, of that stuff is listed as ingredients.

When you make your own cleaning products you have the advantage of knowing exactly what is in them.

Another advantage of creating your own homemade cleaning solutions is that it can save you money, because often many of the ingredients within these recipes are quite inexpensive, especially if you buy in bulk. Plus, many of the ingredients can be used in multiple ways, so you won't be wasting anything.

Finally, an additional reason to make your own cleaners is because many of them (but not all) are made with natural ingredients, which are better for the environment.

Green cleaning is definitely important in this day and age. (If you decide you want to use green cleaners, but not make them yourself be sure to check out my eco-friendly and green cleaners reviews).

Below are some recipes and instructions for various types of cleaning solutions and products that you can make and use for your own home.

Uses Of Various Homemade Cleaning Supplies

Like I said, there are just a handful or two of supplies you'll need to make your own cleaners, and the great thing about many of them is they're very versatile.

That's why I've created this section which explains some of the cool uses for these supplies, and also gives some short science lessons that will help you make sure you're using them properly for the best results possible.

Recommendations And Ideas For Using Essential Oils For Cleaning

Another common ingredient in many of my recommended homemade cleaning products recipes include essential oils.

These oils can add a nice fragrance to your recipes, but in addition some of them can add some cleaning power to the solution, like to help disinfect or degrease, for example.

I've gotten lots of questions about these oils, and how they're used for your cleaners and laundry products, so I created several pages below that explain more about this topic for everyone who's interested.

Safety When Making Your Own Cleaning Products

While making your own cleaners can often be better for the environment and allow you to have great control over what chemicals you are introducing into your home, you still have to keep safety in mind when making your supplies.

Therefore, I've shared tips below that you should keep in mind before you begin to mix your recipes together.
