ECO-Friendly Mattress Cleaner

Here is an easy, eco-friendly and inexpensive method of cleaning your mattress.

CLEAN YOUR MATTRESS:
Pour about 1 cup of baking soda into a jar & add 4 drops of lavender essential oil. Put on the lid & shake the jar. Using a kitchen strainer, sprinkle the baking soda mixture all over the mattress & let it sit for an hour or more. Thoroughly vacuum the mattress.

Say goodbye to dust mites, & other nasty things. The baking soda helps draw up any moisture & deep dirtiness. It deodorizes & leaves the mattress smelling fresh & clean.

Lavender Benefits:
BODY: Gentle, versatile & balancing. A natural antibiotic.
MIND: Lavender has anti-depressant qualities and can be used for anxiety, irritability and melancholia. Brings a feeling of calm and can help insomnia.
Avoid in first trimester of pregnancy and with low blood pressure.
