Introduction
Wooden furniture adds warmth and elegance to any space, but over time, it can lose its shine due to scratches, dust, and wear. While commercial wood polishes are available, they often contain harsh chemicals. Why not try a homemade, natural alternative? This special oil blend not only restores your furniture’s shine but also nourishes the wood, making it look as good as new. Plus, it's eco-friendly and easy to make with ingredients you likely already have at home.
Ingredients
½ cup of olive oil: Acts as a natural conditioner for the wood.
¼ cup of white vinegar: Removes dirt and grime while adding a natural shine.
10 drops of lemon essential oil: Provides a fresh scent and additional cleaning power.
A clean, soft cloth: For application and buffing.
Directions
Mix the ingredients: Combine the olive oil, white vinegar, and lemon essential oil in a small bowl or jar. Stir or shake well to ensure the ingredients are thoroughly blended.
Prepare the surface: Dust the furniture with a dry, clean cloth to remove any loose dirt or particles.
Apply the oil: Dip a soft cloth into the mixture and wring out the excess. Gently rub the oil onto the wooden surface in a circular motion. Focus on areas with scratches or dullness.
