I have to admit, today’s post wasn’t supposed to be about a homemade cleaner at all. But, as is often the case with me, I got distracted by something and plans changed. 
It’s not really my fault though (never mind, it totally is!) The nice people at MasonJars.com sent me several different caps for mason jars to try and I was so enamored with the spray nozzle cap that I decided a homemade cleaner was in order!
I looked around my house for some inspiration and determined that the thing most in need of a good cleaning was the inside of my refrigerator! OY! Starting with the hamburger I had thawed in the refrigerator that leaked, moving on to the orange juice spill that never got entirely wiped up, and several other messes in between, I had my work cut out for me.
I started with one of my most trusted and effective cleaning ingredients….vinegar. Since I’ve had success with the cleaning power of heated vinegar in both my Tub & Shower Magic and when cleaning my microwave, that’s what I went with for this cleaner recipe.
Chemical-Free Refrigerator Cleaner
Ingredients:
Add two parts hot water and one part vinegar to a glass spray bottle, then add the lemon essential oil.
Spray mixture inside the fridge, let sit for a minute or two, and wipe with a damp cloth.
The hot water and vinegar will not only loosen stuck on food, but will also help to eliminate undesirable odors. The lemon EO helps sanitize and leaves a clean, fresh smell!
By the way, this will work wonderfully in your microwave too. Or you can try THIS safe and simple method from a previous post.
