APPLE CIDER VINEGAR FOR THE WIN.

My obsession with ACV is real and I'm about to tell you why. This vinegar is capable of so many things, like the detox bath I mentioned before and food, but today I'm talking all things clean.

I'm going to teach you 4 ways to use ACV while cleaning. and cleaning the NATURAL way that is!

Window Cleaner 

      2. WINDOW CLEANER

I don't know about you, but my least favorite chore used to be cleaning the mirrors and windows. I just could NOT get a streak free finish no matter how hard I tried. The struggle was real. Here's where ACV comes in. Apple Cider Vinegar is so much more effective than Windex or other window cleaners and it leaves a pretty, spot free shine.

DIY: 

Mix 1 part vinegar to three parts water and add a few drops of essential oil, lemongrass, or a 1/2 teaspoon of organic dishwashing liquid. Wah-Lah, your windows are about to look spick and span. WAX ON, WAX OFF.

      2. Toilet Cleaning

DIY:

Pour a few shakes of baking soda in a drain and then by adding a cup of apple cider vinegar it will create a bubbly reaction that when scrubbed, leaves the toilet looking like a throne! So fresh and so clean, clean! 

     3. All Purpose Cleaning

For the rest of the house, I have a bottle of homemade spray cleaner in the kitchen and every bathroom. A clean home is a happy home.

DIY:

In one spray bottle use 1 part white vinegar, 4 parts water, 10-20 drops of essential oil [optional], and 1 tsp of organic dish soap. NOTE: This works like MAGIC on counter tops, chairs, baseboards, walls, appliances, floors, and everywhere else! 

       4. Carpet Stain Remover

This stain remover, I use on the daily! Weston (my babe of a fiancé) says that I am a natural calamity. So, I have my all natural carpet cleaner-calamity-bandaid I use when I spill, which is pretty often. Give it a try, it works great with pet stains too!

DIY:

In a spray bottle, use equal parts warm water + white vinegar + castle soaps. Mix until mixture becomes foamy then dampen and pat the stained area until stain is magically removed. 

My love affair with ACV is real. Can you see why?

Love and Wellness,
