Hi Melissa, I have a dryer hack. If your garments come out wrinkly, or you need to quickly remove some wrinkles from an item, throw an ice cube in with the clothes and turn the dryer on for a few minutes, then remove the item(s) immediately and hang up. There may (or may not) be a little bit of wet spots but they will dry quickly and your garment will be virtually wrinkle free.

If you throw in a damp cloth, will do the same thing without wet spots
The best cleaning advice I have ever learnt from you is "letting it sit." Honestly, that has saved me so much frustration and cash! I use a variation of your cleaning spray too, so thank you very much for giving me the tools for a clean home, in much less time and easy on the pocket xx
Fine….. I guess I’ll go clean something haha.

For me Bar Keeper Friend! It is hard to beat! Great info here.
Thanks for all the DIY cleaners.
Love Love Love! Thank you for sharing!
I love the first one water and dish soap we labeled it Old Reliable with a picture of the dog off of Lady and the Tramp. My favorite product on the market is Pink and I always have the barkeepers friend. We use all the homemade products you have suggested to make they are the very BEST! Thank You! ❤❤❤
Barkeeper's Friend, Dawn, & Washing Soda are the must-have store items for me...
Like all of this and have been using your all purpose cleaner, really work well; thank you Melissa and have a beautiful night. 🙂🙃😉
Wonderful to know! I’m making a few DIY cleaners today ❤
I've been using Kaboom bathroom cleaner every time I make my grocery list. and pine sol cleaner too.❤ this is soooo easy and I just finished watching your video. you're home is gorgeous. Thanks so much. 😊😊😊
The all purpose cleaner is amazing! It's my go-to cleaner and tea tree oil is just the right hint of clean scent that doesn't give me a migraine. I had to make a second bottle of the AP cleaner for the garage because I got tired of hunting it down when I needed it 😁
Some of my staples are Gain power wash (mostly bc of the smell), Rocco & Roxie enzymatic! Thanks as always Melissa! Loving the minis I bought on yr site. I feel like I can control them a lot easier than 12x12 microfibers.
I really like the Lysol foam all purpose cleaner. Does a really good job at leaving no streaks..especially on flat top stoves and all faucets.
Great DIYs! Thank you 🙏❤️
Thanks for these DIYs.
Amazing div products i cant wait till i start making my own
Bon Ami. It's very similar the Bar Keepers Friend.
THANK YOU THANK YOU
Dawn dish soap and fabuloso for me.
The solution with the alcohol is basically the same as the Dawn PowerWash diy spray minus the essential oil. Just put it in your empty SprayWash bottle.
Wonderful
the pink is my go to always
Thanks!
After years of cleaning my glass top tables with paper towel and leaving tons of lint, which returns shortly . I tried yours and holy cow. My furniture looks great! Thanks so much!
Sal suds, oxi clean and "All" baby laundry detergent :-) Love and tried almost all your DIY recipes!
I still use those Earth laundry strips or Tide for laundry and love Method Daily Granite on my counters. But I do use your basic cleaner recipe with the rubbing alcohol on lots of things! I have a window cleaner recipe that contains vinegar, distilled water and a small amount of cornstarch and I LOVE it, especially with a squeegee!
Clorox is my die hard favorite cleaner that I add to many of my household cleaners especially in the bathroom ❤
Good information.
WD-40 is my friend when I want to make things shine. My apartment was totally gutted and remodeled 5 years ago and builder's grade everything was used. It's lovely and I appreciate having a nice place to live but I have to be careful what I use to clean with. I use the homemade mixtures for the everyday cleaning. But when I need to spiffy things up I will use the WD-40 on my appliances, fixtures, sink, anywhere I want to make it look new. The landlord does a walk-through twice a year and she says I have the cleanest apt. Thanks, Melissa for making me look good!
I’ve used your recipes for years, it’s in my “love” KZread list, easy, non toxic, gentle on all surfaces, and cheap. I have one harsher cleaner for occasional use on tough grease. And your cloths are just amazing! Thank you 😁
Thanks a ton 😃👍
WOW this is fantastic, going to try some of these these. Thanks Woolite Laundry detergent for black and white clothes.
thank you
I love your DIY cleaners - and borax is one of my favorites. I mix 2 Tbsp borax with a cup of baking soda, and keep it by the tub to add to Epsom salt baths - is also great as a cleaner - I sprinkle some in the toilet bowl about weekly. I use eco laundry strips, and love them! I'm trying a bar of dish soap when my new house is finished (soon, I hope!!) But keep liquid on hand. I mix several Tbsp borax with 15 oz hot water to dissolve, then pour about 1/4 cup in the laundry dispenser most loads. I also got a set of natural wool dryer balls that I use regularly.
Love your diy bathroom tub and tile cleaner with hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, dish soap and few drops essential oil. Also, thanks for your honesty and transparency!❤

I love your recipes and have been using them for years. Laundry detergent
Love these ideas and recipes. I noticed the water pitcher you used on the tub, you must be in Canada! That's a milk bag pitcher. 🇨🇦 🍁

I am new here & use some of these already and they are great thanks 💥💥
Washing up liquid. I use Fairy, I think it's the British equivalent of Dawn. For a long time I used bar soap to wash dishes (not hand bar soap) but when I went back to ferry it made washing the dishes so much easier. I can also be used to make other cleaning products around the home so it's multi-use and probably the product I use more than any other in my home.
Awesome
I have used your recipe for the stone cleaner and the baking soda and dish soap recipe to clean my bathrooms

Hey Beautiful
I bought the house recently so moving to there soon so I searched for how to clean properly for the whole house. I am so happy that I found your channel. I love all your recipes for cleaning spray. Does the DIY spray have expired? How long will it last? Also suggest me how to clean unpainted inside kitchen cabinets and drawers. I will appreciate if you have time to answer. Thank you
I’m with you on the bar keeper’s friend, and dish soap - also use Castile soap & Castile bar soap 👍🏻
Ill always buy store bought dishwasher tablets & rinse aid. I haven't found a DIY product that I like as much!
Barkeepers friend is my diehard. I’d love to see a video on how to use it!
I love the Biokleen Bac Out you suggested for pet and toilet stuff, I can’t live without Dr. Bronners Sal Suds for my all around concentrated soap (I add it to homemade all purpose spray, use it in the toilet bowl scrub recipe, dilute it for dishes… etc.). Last but not least - Bar Keepers Friend!!
Great ideas! What do you recommend for re-sending granite countertops?
Hello Melissa, Thank you for sharing your expertise on housekeeping. I will not share my age but simply say I’m a grandmother learning so much. Over a year ago I signed up for your class starting a cleaning business. Lost track with Life and Covid, would I be able to access the course?
Clorox bleach -still my fave to use in cleaning cutting boards and will spray in the bathrooms
Cold pressed orange oil concentrate. Dilluted in water in spray bottle from 1 oz per quart (general purpose) to 6 oz per quart (heavy degreasing).
I have hard water which may be the reason commercial products work better in the tub. I use dish soap plus Scrubbing bubbles (vs vinegar) to clean my tub/shower. Dish soap makes the cleaning go much faster than the product alone.
I have to have Comet for toilets. And Tide for laundry. 😁
I like Murphy's Soap for all wood floors, furniture.
The die-hard cleaning products that I buy are Bar Keeper's Friend and Tide for laundry.
If I remember right you had a DIY Disinfectant / all purpose cleaner to clean the toilet in one of you many but super diy cleaner videos. Do you remember which one or do you remember the recipe? Thanks I have learn so much from you and you helped me so much because the diy cleaner usually always clean better for me than the store bought.
You amaze me that you hate cleaning and yet make a living off of it! ;-)
I clean airbnbs and I discovered a set of cleaning cloths for windows and glass where you only use water! They have litteraly saved me soooo much money for less than $20. Microfiber wholesale window and glass cleaning cloths.
Bar Keepers Friend ❤
How do you clean wicker baskets? I bought several last December and I'm not sure if I should clean it soon hehe.
Power paste and Sprayway!
I am first from Pakistan your vlog are informative
I like your spray bottles where can I get them.
The milk bag jug!! 😂Ontario represent✌️
Hi Melissa - can you suggest the best way to clean a glass stove top that will remove all the extra residue that is left after cooking. Also how to remove candle wax from a glass. Appreciate all your remedy advice on your channel and thanks so much.
I am trying to switch to products that are better for me and better for the environment because I am struggling with infertility and I am trying to switch to more natural products to see if they help…So I made some changes like buying perfume free products, including dish soap that it’s perfume free. I started using essential oils instead of perfume for the house. I use natural soap as a body wash instead of general shower gel . And I started using more DYI home cleaning products so thank you for this video.
Could you make a video about what cleaning you could do before you go on holiday? For example I remove the bedsheets before I go on vacation so it can air out while I'm gone, but I was wondering if there were other things like that that I'm missing.

Here in Australia I buy "Jiff". It's a creme cleanser, useful for grime and soap scum. Also Borax, to soak my cloth wipes (old cloth nappies now used as wipes), kitchen rags, excercise towels, and underwear. Everything else I make from scratch.

We have Jiff in New Zealand also. It's something I've always used but I feel they changed the recipe a couple of years ago. It's not as good as it used to be. It's not as thick and creamy as it was. More like it's cheaper alternatives now.

Hi I love all of your videos with tips and your expertise 😍 your video on cleaning and I saw you use a handheld steamer that plugged in could you link that below please or let me know which one it is thanks so much Tammy 🌺
What DIY product would be used on glass top stove?
I checked white vinegar which you use in cooking etc to cleaning vinegar which is a little stronger but according to chemists that does not make any difference. I am going to litmus paper and check pH. This is why I find using just water in many cases works well for me
Where did you get your shirt from? I love it!
You can absolutely make your own laundry detergent using equal amounts of marseille soap and baking soda and adding 15 - 20 drops of lemon essential oil.It cleans the clothes perfectly,even darker ones.For fabric softener I recently switched to white vinegar (again adding essential oil,usually lavender).It leaves the clothes really soft and delicately smelling!

Over time, using soap instead of detergent will build up on clothes and the machine. Often it voids your machine’s warranty too. Just a heads up.
I use pink solution and would be super interested in seeing a video on how you use it. I've made the heavy and light mix as well as used it straight up but would love to see someone that isn't from the company show its benefits.

For the soap scum buster, have you added water to the product to yield more spray? Vinegar on its own isn’t too potent? Thanks
What do you think of homemade laundry detergent? My family makes it in huge batches and it lasts us well over 6 months! I enjoy the sustainability of it but what do you think of the ingredients?
You can wip up laundry detergent. It is cheap and easy to make the powder. We have done it for years and won’t go back to commercial laundry detergent.
Have you ever used newspaper ro clean the mirrors? Just turned my hands black!!lmao MY FAVORITE CLEANING/FRESHENING HACK WOULD BE 3/4BOTTLE HOT WATER AND LIKEN1-2 CAPS OF UNSTOPPABLEs....I spray it on EVERYTHING THAT IS FABRIC. makes the house smell soooook good.
I have a question, Melissa. And i apologize if this was already mentioned in other videos. What is the best cleaning solution for fake hardwood floors? I am currently using liquid Lysol followed by steam cleaner, but it's been so hot, all windows are shut and Lysol fumes are hard on us all (reactive airway). Thank you! Love your channel!

Do not use steam on fake hardwood floors. It will destroy it. Use Melissa's general cleaner, vinegar, dish soap, and water.
The Clean my Space general purpose cleaner recipe is great, you can whip up 1 spray bottle and it will clean your whole house and I tend to do this when I don't always want to use branded cleaning products.In answer to your question, Bar Keepers Friend and Thieves oil are must have products.
Do you use a wet cloth or dry when cleaning countertops?
Is the borax safe for doors that have mildew and mold? Our ventilation in one of our restrooms is really bad and the doors get moldy from the top. Will it mess up the paint? I've thought about using bleach but wanted something less strong in scent.
I❤️ your microfiber cloths ! Didn’t realize how crappy my polyester ones were until I experienced the cleaning power of yours ! Thank you for an awesome product . I clean my glass mirrors with straight vinegar , is they wrong ? What do you recommend for a steak free shine on stainless refrigerators ?
I have very hard water. Would that affect the cleaning properties or my surfaces using these solutions?
HOW DO YOU TAKE OUT THE SCRATCHES ON STAIINLESS STEEL SINKS?
I would really like a video on tasks for kids and how to help teach them to clean. We are working on teaching our son to pick up toys.
Mold and mildew cleaner that I use is Clorox spray with bleach for my grout around the bathtub.
