Homemade Orange Peel Infused Vinegar Cleaner

I have seen this homemade cleaner all over pinterest and decided to give it a try:)

Items needed:

1. Mason Jar with lid
2. Orange Peels
3. Vinegar

Put orange peels inside mason jar and pour vinegar over them.  Seal with lid.  Place in a dark area.  I put mine in the cabinet under the kitchen sink.  Every few days I would shake it up.  

Day One:

Day 21:

The picture is not that good but the peels are now a brownish color and there is bits and pieces of orange and the color has changed from clear to orange.

look at the color!  and the smell is less offensive than straight vinegar.  I put the orange peels in my garbage disposal!  I haven't tried cleaning with it yet.

Water Bottle Garden

I have seen these Water Bottle Garden's popping up on Pinterest and decided to give it a try.

Items you will need:

1. Empty Water Bottle
2. Razor Blade & Scissors
3. Hammer
4. Nail
5. String
6. Potting Soil
7. Seeds

Place water bottle on it's side. Use a razor blade to start cutting the bottle and finish cutting with scissors. You will cut the bottle about 2/3 the way down. Use caution, as the cut plastic edge may be sharp.

Take off cap of water bottle and use a nail and hammer to punch holes in the cap.

Use your jute string and thread through the hole of the bottle.The string will act as a wick and absorb water into the bottle and move it to the plant roots.

Place cap back on bottle Fill the upper section of the bottle with lightweight potting soil fill the bottom section with water. and insert inside the bottom half of the bottle. The felt string should make contact with the bottom of the bottle.

Plant seeds in the soil. Use a spray bottle and spray the top of the soil with water to dampen top of soil.  Place in a sunny window and wait for it to start sprouting. When you notice the water getting low just add more.
