Simple Wipes…Superior Results!

Thieves Homemade Cleaning Wipes
Clean all your surfaces, counters, sinks, tubs, tables, toilets, car interior, mirrors…you name it! If you don’t have Thieves cleaner, you’re missing out, but in a pinch, you can substitute white vinegar. Read up on Why I Use Thieves Cleaner. These pack a powerful punch without leaving streaks.
The criteria I use for my recipes is they must be SIMPLE with EASILY ATTAINABLE INGREDIENTS, INEXPENSIVE and must WORK! This recipes checks all the boxes, so here it is!
  • Ingredients:
  • Coffee Filters
  • 1 Cup Water
  • 1 tsp Thieves Cleaner  
  • 1 Tbls Liquid Castile Soap (unscented)
  • 5 Drops *Essential Oils (I use Thieves)
You can find inexpensive containers to fit your coffee filters at any grocery store or Dollar store. You may already have a stack of them in your tupperware drawer at home
After placing filters into your container, mix all ingredients and pour over filters.  You may need to put the lid on and turn upside down a time or two, making sure the filters are soaked all the way through.
To use, pull out a filter or two and wipe away, cleaning any surface you can think of! I like to make a few of these and place in different rooms, especially the kitchen and bathrooms.
Bonus Tip:
Cut up some rags, or get a pack of inexpensive wash cloths, pack into the container and pour the solution over the cloths for REUSABLE WIPES. Used wipes can be tossed into the washer and used over and over again!

Just a girl who finally decided to GO FOR IT!

 
My life was filled with regrets. I spent too much time in the rat race, being a stressed-out ball of anxiety living someone else’s version of my life. I would come home after work most days and crash on the couch with zero energy left. I took advice from others who didn’t know me, tried to keep up with the Jones’, living a boring life with no purpose. Somewhere along the way I lost my identity, I wore the hats of co-worker, mom, wife, etc. and forgot what brought ME joy. A turning point in my life was a quote I read from my favorite author, Terry Goodkind, “Your life is yours alone, rise up and live it!”

I set out on a journey to “find myself”, which is a little cheesy, but I came to realize that in order to be the best mom and best wife, I needed to be my best self. SELF-CARE IS NOT SELFISH. In fact, it’s just like the masks on an airplane. Put your mask on before helping others.

Everything changed when I got my head straight, started working to balance my life and started a simple daily routine that increased my energy and overall health. Almost overnight, I left the job I hated, we sold everything, moved across the country and started living our lives. My goal was to not have any regrets at the end of my short life.

Now, I work from home one block from the beach, I’m learning how to scuba, surf, and sail as we prepare to live on a boat, traveling the world, soon. We aren’t waiting for retirement when we won't be as “youthful”, we’re living our lives NOW.

I’ve put my mask on and I’m ready to help others fix their boring lives and do EXACTLY what they were created to do! I’m excited to see you live the life you are dreaming of!
