If you follow this blog, you know how I feel about cleaning kitchen sponges. (It’s not a compulsion–I promise!)
Well, I just thought it would be fun to share a video I made on cleaning kitchen sponges.
In the video, I demonstrate how to make a 2 oz spray that helps keep your sponges fresh and smelling great! I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you for the sponge spray video and recipe, my mother hates that I use sponges instead of dish cloths so I will be sure to tell her about this!
Thanks for the new videos.
Thanks for the sponge cleaning recipe.
Thank you so much! I’ve been looking to do this!!
Before this, I’d only heard the “microwave on high for 2 minutes” advice. I loathe the smell of dirty sponges and they get dirty so quickly! Alas, I have not mastered the art of using a rag instead! So glad you did this in video format. I can’t take your class (yet!) but this gives me a nice sample. Thank you!
By the way, what role does the hydrogen peroxide play in this mixture?
I can not wait to begin using my essential oil products that i have begun making! This is all so fun and new to me. Perhaps this may be a good side job for me.
Thank you! I hate the idea of microscopic germs in the sponges!! I will try this.
