Do you ever feel lost about what is in your cleaning closet? Maybe you have too much…..maybe too little. Maybe you aren’t convinced your cleaners are effective. I know I have tried and even made some I wasn’t fond of.

A clean home was a cornerstone. A warm, inviting home was the pride of the American woman. Some of the cleaning supplies from then, are still relevant today (Ajax or Tide for example). Some however were full of very toxic things and taken off the market.

Well, today, we are going to discuss the staples that belong in the homemaker’s cleaning supplies. This is not brand specific.

Remember folks, when you stock up on cleaning supplies,  keep them out of reach of children.

Ladies, feel free to comment on what cleaners you use that make your life easier!
