We have been using white vinegar and baking soda as our main household cleaner for the last eleven months. I don’t mind the vinegar smell that much but hubby often comes in and asks what I’ve been cooking when I’ve been cleaning! I’ve read comments on line from women whose husbands won’t let them use vinegar to clean as they can’t stand the smell. Well last week I found the solution. A friend bought me a voucher for my birthday so I was able to purchase things that would normally be luxuries. At the Body Shop I came across their home fragrance oil range – their Satsuma fragrance ($11 for 10 mL) is exactly the same smell that orange citrus shop bought cleaners have. So today I did my cleaning along with a few drops of fragrance in my homemade spray and wipe bottle – it was gorgeous. It is still in the testing stages for me as you have to be careful as to what substances do to surfaces but so far it is looking positive.
