DIY Glass Cleaner



So, the last money saving thing is DIY glass cleaner. While you can buy cheap things at dollar tree, you still don't get the volume you do by making it at home. Sometimes that's a way to save money; rather than buying more of something for a dollar every time, spend a few more dollars and make a bunch of it. 


I emptied out the glass cleaner thing.

Rubbing Alcohol
Cornstarch
Water
Vinegar
Lemon Essential Oil 


1 Tablespoon of Cornstarch
This kind of is a gentle buffer on the glass surface. 

1 and 1/2 cups of water

1/2 cup of vinegar. 

1/4 cup rubbing alcohol
I added about three drops of essential oil in order to mask the smell. It helped some and left more of a lemon smell, but it's not necessary. 



It does separate some, so you'll need to shake it every time you use it. Also, as a note, it doesn't work as well with cloth. I don't know why, but when I tried wiping it with cloth it streaked. Paper towels worked best. 


This is how it worked.

After

It also worked really well on the bathroom fixtures. Gave them a nice shine. 
I like this one. I'll probably make more and continue to use it in the future.
