A shining star in green cleaning recipes is the “Four Thieves®” multi-surface spray. It’s easy to make, and its versality means that it earns its keep in my natural cleaning supply closet. It also smells fresh and invigorating and cuts grease with the likes of commercially available soaps and sprays.
The Apothecary & Co's version of thieves® essential oil blend can be used for autumnal diffuser blends, hand sanitizer sprays and gels, and now thanks to some added alcohol, water, and soap, the perfect multi-purpose spray.
