Detox your Home
Detox your Home
The time has come for you to undertake an ’environmental makeover’ of your cleaning style and spritz up your world with Green Cleaning! Come and learn a ‘’new’’ safe and environmentally friendly way to clean your home. Just stop for a moment and count how many cleaning products you have in your home? Do you need them all? And what exactly do they contain?
Many of the products we use around the home are harsh, produce toxic fumes, leave residues and produce undesirable environmental residues and wastes.
Green cleaning workshops will offer much inspiration, from those long forgotten recipes of the 1920’s that still work, to how to best use modern microfibre cloths.
You will learn how to make recipes and produce a simple, cheap and an environmentally friendly green cleaning kit.
Green cleaning will save money and by the end, although it sounds strange, we’ll almost guarantee that you will be enthused to go home and try cleaning with all these new recipes! So what are you waiting for, download the fact sheet today, and then come along to one of our workshops to further your skills.
