My easy DIY ‘toilet bomb’ will make your bathroom sparkle – you can use the same ingredients for an all-purpose cleaner
A CLEANING fanatic has shared her DIY recipe that will leave your bathroom sparkling.
The TikToker showed her followers how to make the “toilet bombs” and a similar all-purpose cleaner.
In her video, Emma Jean (@emmajean.28) walked viewers through the recipe step by step.
First, she recommended adding a cup of sodium bicarbonate, also known as baking soda, to a large bowl.
Emma then measured out a cup and a half of citric acid and combined it with the bicarbonate.
After mixing together the dry ingredients, she tackled the second part of the recipe.
She combined one cap of Thieves household cleaner and 10 drops of essential oil.
The cleaning enthusiast recommended using lemon-scented oil and mixing the ingredients in a spray bottle.
Emma diluted the solution by adding four teaspoons of water to the bottle.
She advised viewers: “Spray on dry ingredients slowly and mix, being careful not to activate citric acid.”
After combing all the ingredients, Emma added the mixture to a mold tray.
Finally, she let the tray sit overnight before removing the DIY cleaning cubes and placing them in an airtight jar.
Emma also demonstrated to her followers how to make an all-purpose “natural gumption” using a similar mixture.
She added half a cup of bicarbonate, 10 drops of lemon essential oil, and one cap of Thieves household cleaner.
“Mix thoroughly to form a paste and store in an air-tight glass jar,” she explained.
She recommended using the solution “for deep cleaning showers and sinks.”
Emma also revealed that adding clove oil can help to deter mold from growing in your bathroom.
