Furniture Polish - Olive Oil and Lemon Juice

Here is a great tip on saving money on furniture polish.
  • 1 cup of olive oil
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 1 clean 16 oz. spray bottle

Combine the oil and lemon juice in the spray bottle. Shake well before using.

Use a clean, dry cloth to buff and polish. Works wonders and saves you money!

I saw the following recipe on a video:

  • 5 lemons
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • spray bottle
Cut 5 lemons in half and squeeze all the juice in a measuring cup until you have 1/2 cup pure juice (remove any pulp and seeds) Pour lemon juice into a spray bottle, then add 1 cup olive oil. Shake mixture until well mixed. Acid in the lemon juice will prevent olive oil from spoiling.

Now you can be environmentally safe and polish all of your furniture eliminating the harmful fumes in the commercial furniture polishes. Source: MSN
