Yes it’s that time of year again when the longer brighter days make us realise how utterly filthy our houses are (or maybe that is just me?!)
Our knowledgeable Chrissy @chrissy_hazel_holmes has shared with us and you a few of her favourite homemade cleaning recipes 
They are really effective and so easy to make! Scroll down to see:
Toilet Cleaner (best ever)
• empty all the water out of the toilet bowl. A small plastic cup or ladle will do the trick.
• Pour in 100/150g of citric acid followed by a 1.5 litres (contents of kettle) of boiling water
• leave for 30 minutes
• scrub thoroughly and flush
De-scale Kettle
•tbsp citric acid
• inch worth of water (enough to cover element/base plate of water)
Pour the citric acid into the empty kettle and then add the water ensuring the base plate/element is covered. Switch on the kettle and as it heats up, you will see the limescale fizzing as it reacts with the acid! And ta-da!
Multi Surface Cleaner
• 500ml boiled water
• 2 tbsp citric acid
• essential oils (optional)
Mix the citric acid with the water and allow to cool before adding to your spray bottle. I like tea tree/ eucalyptus essential oils in my bathroom cleaner and lemon in my kitchen.
*Disclaimer: use with caution on very delicate sufaces or varnished wood. It is worth doing a sense check beforehand.
Scouring Scrub
• 1 cup castile soap
• 3 cups of water
• Bicarbonate of soda
You can use this effective castile soap scrub cleaner in your kitchen or bathroom. Mix the castile soap with the water in a spray bottle. Shake some bicarbonate soda and then spray the cleaning solution on the area that needs to be cleaned. Use a sponge or brush to scrub away any dirt or grime
