I am trying to do away with all the store bought chemicals and cleaning products in my house. I make my own laundry detg. and thanks to MJ's latest mag I now make the vinegar mix, but I need a recipe for furniture polish. So Im all ears if you can share one or have any other cleaning recipe to share I'd love to have them. Thanks Karen

Here's one posted in another part of this forum:
Dusting spray

1 cup distilled water
2-3 drops Essential oil (of choice)

Put into spray bottle. Spray onto cotton cloth and dust away!

Here's one posted on Dave Ramsey's frugal forum:
Homemade Dust and Furniture Polish

Mix in a sprayer bottle:

1 cup olive oil
1/2 cup lemon juice

Shake well and apply a small amount to a flannel cleaning rag or cleaning cloth. Spread evenly over furniture surface. Turn cloth to a dry side and polish dry.


Obviously the olive oil one will leave a film for polishing. I like the distilled water one for dusting where no residue is required.

Smiles!
