Ah, springtime—that bright season when we fling open the windows, let in the sun, and realize just how much dust accumulated over the winter months....
Let's talk Spring Cleaning.
WHY NATURAL?
Chemicals are so last season. Store-bought cleaning products can be overbearing, full of harsh chemicals and let's face it, they often leave us feeling like we're cleaning our homes with a toxic cloud. We've laid out a few staples to create an environment you're not scared for your dog—or your child—to lick.
PANTRY STAPLES
- Vinegar
- Baking Soda
- Lemon
- Liquid Soap
- Essential Oil
DIY CLEANING RECIPES
You can whip up your own all-purpose spray with vinegar, water, and a few drops of your favorite essential oil. Harder spot to clean? Baking soda and liquid soap are here to save the day!
What about laundry detergent? Mix together baking soda, epsom salt, washing soda, essential oils and voila! You have yourself an all-natural solution that can also save you $5-$20 per detergent.
CLEANING TIPS
1. Start From The Top: dust the cobwebs from the ceiling and work your way down, otherwise you'll be vaccuuming 10x times.
2. Dettach & Declutter: say goodbye to the pile of junk lurking in the corner for months. If it doesn't spark joy, it's time to let go!
3. You're Not a Superhero: Rome wasn't cleaned in a day, so don't feel bad if you need to take a breather—or three—along the way.
4. Dancing is Mandatory: Blast your music while you scrub. Bonus points if you make some mimosas throughout your day.
IT'S NOT A CHORE
Spring Cleaning doesn't have to be a chore when you're proud of your products, listening to your music and romanticizing the entire process. Say hello to a fresh environment, and another step towards building your Oasis Life. 🌱✨
