Get Squeaky Clean Windows...Using Natural Cleaners & Recyclables

Everyone uses the typical chemical cleaners for window and all-purpose uses. But what if I told you that there is a healthier and eco-friendlier way to scrub those windows? Do you have water, vinegar and some old newspapers around your place? Then read on to see how you can clean with these chemical & harsh-free products. This might come in handy for those who have children that love to smooch and lick your sliding doors...

1:1 water to vinegar + newspapers

Not only is vinegar and water safer to breathe in but it also helps keep ants from coming around. It doesn't necessarily kill them but the smell of the vinegar keeps them from coming into the cleaned area. Using crunched up newspapers as a "paper towel" helps to keep windows lint and streak-free. White paper towels sometimes leave a fiber residue on mirrors or windows but newspapers wont.

Switching over to a more natural cleaner not only saves your environment but helps in reusing and recycling your products to their best of their ability before they hit the hay!

Shop to Support!

While doing some good old online shopping, I stumbled across a website that donates directly to needy causes which include Breast Cancer Awareness, Hunger, Child Health, Literacy, Rain Forest and Animal Rescue. After a close loved one of mine was diagnosed with breast cancer, I thought it would be nice to buy some products from the breast cancer page that funds 1% of a mammogram for each purchase made. I got a hand-made hammock from Mexico and an eco-friendly coffee cup. It's ceramic with a soft rubber topper. A great way to help the environment and support a good cause!
