natural tile & grout scrub recipe
Add to your homemade natural cleaning collection with this easy-to-make solution. Works for tubs, showers, countertops, backsplashes, and more.
Ingredients
- Copper metal tins or any tin style and color of your choice!
- 90% baking soda
- 9.5% organic flax glycerin (or until baking soda is just combined and slightly crumbly)
-
0.5% fragrance oil or essential oil blend (we love this all-natural, odor-counteracting fragrance, chamomile flowers & lavandin).
Instructions
- For optimal consistency, we suggest mixing the glycerin into the baking soda a small amount at a time until scrub is congealed but slightly crumbly
- A little bit of fragrance goes a long way in this product―just 0.5% load will give you a fresh, pleasant scent
- If using metal tins or glam tins, store in a dry place (some fragrances may cause rusting or paint deterioration to the tins)
- Wipe lid area thoroughly if any product spills on it; otherwise it may become hard to get on and off again
- Including a small wooden spoon or other utensil is a great add-on to your finished product
- Simply place the product onto a sponge and scrub with a small amount of water for best results. Bye, bye dirt and grime!
