Revitalize Your Rugs: A DIY Lavender Herbal Cleaner Powder for a Fresh, Inviting Home
Sometimes, your rugs just need a little extra love. I'm the type of person who vacuums regularly, but twice a month, I give my rugs a refresh with something simple and all-natural—no harsh chemicals or artificial fragrances.
I sprinkle this natural herbal powder on my rugs—a pre-vacuum treatment that does more than just clean; it transforms the vibe of my entire home.
I used to think it was merely about keeping things clean, but I soon discovered it was about how it made my whole home feel.
