Zesty Lemon and Bay Leaf Cleaner

This all-natural cleaner is made with just a few simple ingredients and smells like a fresh spring day. It's perfect for cleaning countertops, tables, and other surfaces in your home.

I've always been a fan of natural cleaning products, but I've never been able to find one that I really loved. They either didn't work very well, or they smelled like vinegar. I decided to create my own cleaner that would be effective and smell great, and this is what I came up with. I've been using it for months now and I love it! It's so easy to make and it leaves my home smelling fresh and clean.
