Green Gift Idea: Basic Cleaning Supplies

July 13, 2008 9:51 am

I came across this idea from the Natural Living community on LiveJournal. The original poster’s younger sister is moving into her first apartment, so she had the idea of putting together a gift basket of basic cleaning supplies. What a great idea!

Here’s the list, modified slightly and added a few other things recommended by the members:

  • A bucket or small trash can
  • Large bottle of Dr. Bronner’s liquid soap (stick with peppermint or Baby Mild)
  • Large box of baking soda
  • Gallon of white vinegar
  • A ton of rags (microfiber, flour sacks, bar mops, etc; recycled/re-purposed materials is best)
  • A booklet of the 1000+ uses of vinegar and baking soda (find tips from sites such as vinegartips.com)
  • Empty spray bottles
  • A box of Borax
  • A good scrub brush
