I need to do a better job of making my own cleaning stuff. I always just go the quick route and grab a bottle of Method or some other brand. I would really like to reduce the chemicals as well as save money.
 
Haha. Yes, me and my brain. I screwed up on another forum and typed "olympics" when I meant "olympus". And now I fudged those numbers. :dizzy:
 
What's with cornstarch in the glass cleaner? Never heard that one before...

Remember-- put water in bottle BEFORE castile soap!
