The Natural Way to Clean Wooden Furniture

Step 1: Dust Off the Furniture

First, take a soft cloth and dust your furniture, wipe all dirt and dust. Make sure to hit every corner so nothing is left behind.

Step 2: Mix Your Natural Cleaner

For step two, combine equal parts olive oil and fresh lemon juice in small bowl. The olive oil moisturizes the wood and the lemon juice leaves a fresh scent and adds shine. Soak a clean cloth in the mixture and use it to rub the furniture in circular motions.

If your furniture has tough stains, you can replace with white vinegar. Use a mixture of one part vinegar to two parts water and wipe it (or wash) it with a cloth. It can also be used for sticky stains or spots.

Step 3: Buff It Up

After applying the cleaner, take another dry rag and buff the furniture to a shine. "So rub it well, and firmly, but gently enough not to scratch the surface.

Extra Tips for Tough Spots
