Before I had stainless steel appliances, I was ALWAYS told how difficult they were to keep clean — and how expensive the cleaning products were. I was unsure if I’d be able to find a more frugal cleaning alternative… but I had to at least try.
After a little research, I found 4 different DIY stainless steel cleaners you most likely already have in your home!
In 2020, our family switched to using all-natural cosmetics and personal care products — including bars of all-natural goat’s milk soap.
Many of you mentioned that your kids have trouble with bar soap, so I thought I’d share my super simple ALL-NATURAL recipe for homemade foaming hand soap (it’s much easier for little hands)!
As much as possible, I try to use “all-natural” products — especially if they are also simple and frugal. When it comes to DIY cleaning products, they are usually all of the above — simple, frugal, and all-natural! Score!
If you’d like to try a few DIY cleaning products but don’t know where to start, you’ve come to the right spot!
Over the past 3+ years, I’ve shared a number of DIY cleaning products here on the blog; however, I’ve never shared a recipe for DIY laundry detergent because I couldn’t find a recipe I actually liked.
That all changed a couple months ago — so today, I’m sharing my new favorite DIY laundry detergent. It works fabulously, it’s really easy to make, it’s quite frugal, and it makes a huge batch!
After years of procrastinating when I knew it was time to clean the windows, I finally created a little system that allows me to keep most of our windows clean most of the time without all that much effort.
To make the process even faster and easier, I use a couple of really simple, all-natural window cleaning products… which I’m sharing inside this post!
For the last 3 weeks since Clara was born, I’ve forced myself to take it easy as much as possible as I physically can’t (and shouldn’t) do as much while I recover.
If you’ve ever found yourself in a situation where you physically can’t do as much, I hope today’s posts offers a few very simple ideas of ways you can keep up with your house cleaning with minimal effort and energy.
Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve made a few small changes to my blog… and as I was updating things, I realized that I’ve never done any type of “start here” post for new readers.
So although I know many of you are veteran readers (and I’m so grateful for you) I thought it might be time for an AndreaDekker.com “how-to post” — and I think even you veteran readers might learn something new!
As I planned ahead for the arrival of baby Simon, I thought it might be fun to resurrect some of MY favorite posts from the past 3.5 years of blogging.
Today, I’m sharing some of MY favorite cleaning posts — homemade cleaners, tips to save time on those dreaded household chores, laundry how-to’s, and more!
