any ideas ?

really lovely traditional little shop in the village, selling borax and all sorts of quaint homewares, so i have a yen to make my own cleaning products. especially now we have had a few sunny days and the sunshine streaming in is showing up the dust !

Vinegar, lemon juice and water makes a good window cleaner

Soap flakes, salt and white vinegar mixed into a paste and dabbed on the carpet eats the stains.

Personally I do floral disinfectant and washing up liquid on most surfaces since it cleans, smells nice and isn't too noxious.

Beeswax is brilliant too generally.

it is such a cute little shop, and dying to go in and buy lots of boxes and bottles of stuff
