One of the most basic yet simple cleaning products you can make! You’d normally spend $4 on a bottle of this stuff, instead make your own for pennies!
This is a perfect cleaning solution to use for those every day touch ups; dish soap helps lift and remove dirt and grease and essential oils, which are optional, help to add a pleasant scent as well as offer some beneficial properties, depending on which ones you select.
- 1 teaspoon of dish soap
- 2 cups of water
- 10 drops of your favourite essential oil
Add to a clean spray bottle
Shake well

The recipe in your new book is different. Apparently, you’ve found what works better. Thank you for always taking us along on the journey to clean!
do you rinse the all purpose cleaner (above) after using on surfaces or let air dry.
The All-Purpose spray and the Everyday Counter spray are one in the same. Must have needed one more recipe to make a total of 31.😉Could be confusing to those not paying attention though.
I love all your videos! Thank you!
Can you recommend where I can find decent spray bottles? You know, like ones that actually work and don’t fall apart after one use? Thank you!
Fantastic on the go cleaner especially when looking after children and with a few drops of eucalyptus oil the smell is heavenly!
