Natural Wood Cleaner


Give your wood floors and furniture a lustrous shine with this simple, eco-friendly, easy-to-make wood cleaner. All you will need is:

1/2 teaspoon oil (Linseed and olive oils work great, but any oil will do)
1/4 cup white vinegar or lemon juice

Mix ingredients in a glass jar or empty spray bottle. Dab a soft cloth in mixture or spray wood surface and rub into wood using light, circular motions. For best results, do not pour product directly onto wood and always use a clean cloth.

For a thicker polish, add a teaspoon of beeswax to the mixture. Rub product into surface until shiny.

Label and store this cleaner. As long as you keep it sealed tightly, it will keep forever.



Remember that although the cleansers presented here are homemade and environmentally friendly, they must be properly labeled, kept out of the reach of children and stored safely at all times.

Test any cleaner in an inconspicuous place before use.
