3 tablespoons white distilled vinegar
3 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon liquid soap or detergent
A few drops olive oil
This is a good mix for well-used furniture. The vinegar does a wonderful job of pulling dirt out of wood. Combine the ingredients in a bowl, saturate a sponge with the mixture, and squeeze out the excess to wash surfaces. The smell of vinegar will disappear in a few hours. Always store carefully in a labeled jar or bottle.
