What Do You Need to make an All Purpose Spray

• Spray bottle – I prefer a glass one like this!
• Strong Alcohol – you can use Vodka, Everclear, or even rubbing alcohol. This is a strong disinfectant even hospitals use everclear to clean with! I’m using an 80 proof vodka.
• Vinegar – this is an important because vinegar will give you mighty cleaning power, but it can not be used on stone! Instead just use everclear or a high alcohol in its place or for the cleaning power add a drop or 2 of dish soap or castile soap.
• Filtered Water – I use my berkey filter for this!
• Essential oils – optional but does add a nice smell and extra cleaning power. I like Tee tree, or Thieves oil from young living.
• Funnel and/or measuring cup – Optional but helpful
