18 Natural Cleaning Recipes for Your Home

Last Updated on December 15, 2017 by Alicia Michelle

Looking for some easy natural cleaning recipes for your home? I love to make all natural home cleaning products with essential oils for two reasons–they're inexpensive, simple to make and keep the harmful, harsh cleaning products out of our home.

But I understand that cleaning with essential oils can feel daunting… especially if you've never done it before. That's why, in this post, I want to help answer the two most common questions people ask about all natural home cleaning using essential oils:

What do you really need to make your own natural cleaning formulas?
Which cleaning recipes really work?

Friends, I want to share all of that with you here! Here's a list of the top natural home cleaning recipes–all in one place, for free.

Everything from DIY natural window cleaners, all-natural cleaning wipes, powerful carpet cleaners–it's all here!

Let's go room by room to see how to make all 18 of these awesome DIY natural cleaning products!

A Few Notes About These Natural Cleaning Recipes

Before we delve into the recipes, I wanted to share a few things:

1) These are multi-use home cleaning recipes.

Although a particular natural cleaning recipe may be featured for one area, many of these natural home cleaning recipes can be used in multiple rooms of your house.

2) All of these natural cleaning recipes use essential oils.

These DIY home cleaning recipes use the power of essential oils (along with a few other key ingredients) to clean and sanitize. Rocky Mountain Oils are my favorite because their oils:

are high quality (read about their testing here),
are 100% guaranteed with a 90-day return policy (simply return them if you don't like them!),
are shipped for free
can be purchased one at a time and direct from the company (no consultant needed).

I've found Rocky Mountain Oils' staff to also be incredibly knowledgeable and helpful (they wrote the formulas behind the recipes, and I'm linking to them with permission).

For your reference, here are the essential oils used in these all natural home cleaning recipes :
