No doubt about it – DIY projects are booming right now. We’re all cooped inside our homes, running low on essential supplies and leery of heading into the supermarket to restock (if there’s anything there at all). But what if you have everything you need at your fingertips already? Here’s a list of fairly simple do it yourself projects all related to cleaning, disinfecting, and keeping those nasty germs away.

5Homemade Disinfectant Wipes

Disinfectant wipes are in short supply, that’s for sure, so if you can make your own, why not?? All you need is some clean face towels, or old rags/shirts you can tear into pieces and some basic ingredients:

  • Fabric 
  • 1/2 cup Alcohol 
  • 1/3 cup Distilled Water
  • 25 drops Lemon Essential Oil
  • 25 drops Tea Tree Essential Oil

Lemon and Tea Tree work wonders as natural antimicrobial substances, and the alcohol further boosts this mixture’s ability to wipe out nasty germs. Mix it all together, save in a glass jar, and douse a piece of fabric with the solution when you need to clean something. Simple and it saves wasting money and creating extra waste with normal wipes.
