Clean Home 2 - Steam Room Deodorizer
It is easy for a room to get very stuffy in the dry, closed in weather of winter. Don't buy an expensive bottle of air freshener, just use some simple pantry ingredients to not only moisten and revitalize your air, but freshn as well!
Steam Room Deodorizer
1 Cup Vinegar
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1 Teaspoon Ground Cloves
1 Teaspoon Nutmeg
Combine the ingredients in a microwave safe dish. For safety, add a wooden skewer to the dish to avoid over heating the water. Warm in the microwave until nearly boiling. Place in the room that is to be deodorized. The steam from the hot water will quickly deodorize the room.
*** Optional - throw in some citrus rinds or splash of lemon juice for extra freshening!

Clean Home 1 - Grime Cutting Glass Cleaner
Cleaners that you create yourself have many advantages over store bought combinations of mystery chemicals. As the consumer, you have control over the quality of the contents as well as the exact mix to suit your needs. It is super inexpensive and each bottle can be made for pennies on the dollar with ingredients you already have on hand.
This is a simple one to start you out with. This one will work better then your standard bottle of window cleaner! Fill a spray bottle from the dollar store (or empty bottle of window cleaner) with the following recipe:
Grime Cutting Glass Cleaner
3 tbsp. Ammonia
½ Cup Alcohol
¼ tsp. Liquid Dish Washing Detergent
Water
Mix the ammonia, alcohol and dish detergent together in a clean spray bottle. Fill the rest of the bottle with water. Use just like commercial window cleaner.
