Super Cleaning Powers

Yes. That is correct. I have recently developed SUPER cleaning powers. And it's thanks to this amazing thing called baking soda and Ceara from DIYConfessions. I will most likely be eternally grateful to both! 

Story time:I moved into my first apartment ever a few months ago. This wasn't a brand new apartment, so it had of course housed a few other people. Mostly though, it's really clean. But I'm a tad OCD and there was one area that was not clean enough for me: The Kitchen Sink. 

Yes, it was a little grimy and filled with black scratch marks and waters stains all over. It was driving me nutty.. I didn't get a before picture, sadly, but I'm sure you can imagine, especially if you've ever rented an apartment or house. 

I went on a hunt for a cleaning solution, and I found a recipe from DIYConfessions for a natural water stain remover. Now, I didn't have a great big spray bottle to mix the ingredients in like she did, so I justput in varying amounts of the three ingredients in a little dollar spray bottle: 

1. White Vinegar
2. Lemon Juice
3. Dish Soap

This mix works pretty well alone, but if you want to see some real magic (which, who doesn't want to see cleaning related magic?) Follow these steps:

1. Mix spray
2. Sprinkle baking soda over trouble zones
3. Spray with the stain remover mix
4. Let bubble up in cleaning goodness
5. Scrub away the grime!

And you're done! For less troubling areas that just need a little bit of TLC, you can just let the baking soda sprayed with the mix sit for a few minutes and then rinse away.

Enjoy your new super cleaning powers! You'll feel the need to wear a cape while cleaning now, trust me.
