Prepare Today Homemade- Granite Cleaner

A few posts ago I wrote about making some homemade mixes from One Good Thing By Jillee and I have to write about another one that I have been using.  My home is currently on the market and I have to make it look as clean and tidy as I can, ALL the time.  With 5 kids that is a chore all in itself, but it can be made easier by using the correct cleaners.  In my kitchen I have granite counter tops and I want them to look shiny and clean.  One Good Thing by Jillee has a recipe for granite cleaner that I am in love with!!  My counters almost look reflective when they are cleaned with this cleaner.  

Jillee's recipe calls for a 16oz spray bottle so I doubled the recipe to fit into my 32oz spray bottle.  And she adds some essential oils that I didn't add because I didn't have any on hand, but they are only to mask the alcohol smell.  With the Dawn in the mix I really don't smell too much alcohol, but to each her own.  I love spraying this on the counters and buffing them, my kids laugh at me but it makes me happy :)

Granite Cleaner
32oz spray bottle
1/2 C rubbing alcohol
6 drops Dawn dish detergent
optional- 5-10 drops of essential oils
Fill container to the top with water

That's it!  So simple, yet so effective!! Click HERE for the original post by Jillee.
