Faux Febreeze Recipes

FAUX FEBREEZE

Steps:

• Put Downy and water in bottle and spray on furniture, carpeting, pillows, shower curtains -- etc -- To do a fabric test, spray small amount in an area where it cannot be seen.
• I never sprayed this on anything white, but I spray it all over my house, once a week.

HOMEMADE WINDEX

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together, adding just enough water to reach the 1 gallon mark, and divide up into spray bottles for all bathrooms.
• Can also be used to clean exterior windows.
• If doing a big job like that, make sure the water is hot.
• That will help to dissolve the dirt.

HOMEMADE FABRIC SOFTENER

Steps:

• Mix together in a large bottle.
• Add 1/2 cup to washing machine rinse cycle.

NO-IRON WRINKLE REMOVER

Steps:

• Mix the last two ingredients well in the spray bottle.
• Hang garment on a hanger.
• Gently mist with spray.
• Lightly tug and smooth the fabric and allow to hang dry.

HOMEMADE SIDEWALK CHALK

Steps:

• Pour plaster into a clean container (like a coffee tin or ice cream tub).
• Using a disposable stir-stick, stir in most, but NOT all, of the water.
• Add 2 tbsp of the liquid tempera paint, mixing well, especially at the bottom; add another tbsp of paint if you think it needs it.
• Add a little more water as the mixture thickens.
• Stir well and pour into small containers, such as the tiny dixie paper cups.
• Peel paper off after the chalk dries, give to the kids, and let them have fun; outside, of course!
