Items needed to make natural bathroom cleaner
- Large inexpensive mixing bowl (the baking soda can etch plastic bowls, so I buy a big plastic bowl at the dollar store that I use just for this).
- whisk
- funnel
- storage jars with squirt lid ( You can also use empty dish soap jars).
- large measuring bowl or pitcher
- teaspoon
- measuring cup
Ingredients Needed
- 8 cups baking soda or 4 – 16 oz. Boxes
- 8 TB/ 1/2 cup concentrated dish soap or 1/2 cup regular
dish soap (half that amount if you have soft water) - 8 TB Vinegar diluted in 7-8 cups distilled water
- 2 teaspoons Tea Tree Oil (Other essential oils to use: Clove, Lemon, Geranium,
Rosemary, Wild Orange)
Let’s talk dishwashing soap for a minute. You are going to find a big spectrum of what is “natural” and “non-toxic”. If you are questioning what kind of soap to use in your cleaners, you can go to the EWG’s website and see their ratings. The kind of soap you choose is all about how clean you want to go. I personally find Mrs. Meyers’s soap ok for my needs, I don’t use it all the time. It does a great job and smells yummy. It rates a “c” for mostly environmental threats. Now on the other end of the spectrum is pure Castile soup that rates an “a”.
How to make the Natural Bathroom Cleaner
In a large mixing bowl, add the baking soda, dish soap, and essential oils
Using a whisk, mix well to get all the lumps out
Using another bowl or picture, add vinegar and 7-8 cups of distilled water to dilute
(If you pour the vinegar directly into the baking soda without diluting, you will have a big bubbly mess).
Slowly pour the liquid into the baking soda.
Mix well, working out the lumps.
Using a funnel, pour the mixture into squirt bottles, mixing frequently between pourings.
This will be a little messy. No worries. Make sure to mix between bottles, as it settles quickly.

Take to the sink to rinse and then dry the bottles.
BAM, there you have it.
You’re set for several months*
How to store your Natural bathroom cleaner

Label Jars
If you store the jar on its side, it will make the shaking process much easier.
***** Make sure the lids are on tight! If they are not, the liquid will leak out. Add a little water when the bottle empties, to use up the sediment on the bottom of the jar.
You will need to shake the bottle vigorously before each use, as it will settle.
(There are no emulsifying agents added).I turn it upside down and pound the bottom of the jar.
