Make Lemon Scented Window Cleaner
This window cleaner not only cleans brilliantly, it also contains the added zest of refreshing lemon to make the task of window washing a little more enjoyable. Or you could just make the kids do it instead...
Steps
- Assemble ingredients.
- Mix in warm water.
- Grab favorite sponge, washcloth or even newspaper and head to the windows.
Tips
- Wear gloves when washing to protect your hands from grime, wetness and anything icky.
Warnings
- Lemon oil contains photosensitizing agents (these increase skin sensitivity to the sun). Do not get oil directly onto your hands when making the window cleaner; if you do spill it on your skin, cover that area from sunlight before going outdoors to avoid any possible skin burn.
- When using essential oils according to the instructions, they are non-toxic. Pregnant women should seek advice from their doctor or herbalist before using.
Things You'll Need
