Try This Simple Stainless-Steel Cleaning Hack

stainless steel cleaning hack

Anyone else ever think to themselves about how ironically named Stainless Steel actually is? 

I swear for something called stainless, it certainly seems to stain easily.  Sometimes I swear all I do is look at it and it will stain.  That’s why I needed to find a stainless steel cleaning hack!

Maybe it’s all the little handprints, finger prints (and somehow footprints) that end up on it from two little ones running around all day that makes it really stand out to me just how EASY it is for stainless steel to stain.  

All of my appliances are made of stainless steel and had I not known this super easy stainless steel cleaning hack I would’ve swore off anything and everything stainless steel forever.

The Best Essential Oils for Cleaning Your Home

best essential oils for cleaning

Anyone who has wanted to ditch some of the harsh chemicals typically turn to the best essential oils for cleaning.  

When it comes to essential oils, I am not one of those people who swear up and down by one brand and one brand only.  There are so many great ones out there, I do personally tend to use a lot of the Young Living Brand, but that isn’t to say that it’s the best and only brand I use.  I actually use a few different ones but I do tend to gravitate towards Young Living.  

Also – I am NO EXPERT on essential oils, I’m simply sharing oils I have used and still use. Ones that I consider the best essential oils to have on hand for cleaning a home.  Do not take this post for anything more than my experience and opinion.   There are affiliate links in this post.

To be completely honest I typically use THIS cleaner for nearly everything anymore.  However, there are still oils I keep on hand for cleaning and the ones I’m listing below are what I think and the best essential oils for cleaning are.

Where to Start Cleaning your House – When you’re Overwhelmed with Mess

Where to Start Cleaning your House

It’s finally spring, which means Spring Cleaning! 

If I’m being honest, I have a love hate relationship with cleaning.  On one hand I love a clean house (I mean who doesn’t, right?!) but I also find if the house goes a few days off of my “schedule” I feel the overwhelm of “where do I start cleaning” set in.

Anyone else? 

After both of my kids were born, I struggled with keeping a schedule to clean the house.  Which resulted in an overwhelming mess for me many times.  I’m all for leaving the dishes in the sink so you can play with your kids because they are only little once, don’t get me wrong, but eventually those dishes do need to get clean.  

If you sat there and thought to yourself, that’s me! Then this post is for you.
