Some of us will host the family holiday dinner or neighborhood cookie-making extravaganza this year. Others may entertain out-of-towners or have a co-worker gift exchange. With visitors, comes housecleaning—unavoidable during the holiday hustle.

Conventional cleaners with their tell-tale antiseptic smells play spoiler to the warm, fresh, welcoming scents we want to blanket family and friends with during the holidays.

A short history lesson


 

Iowan homemaker and mother of nine, Mrs. Thelma A. Meyer is the real inspiration behind Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day home and personal care products.

Concerned about cleaning aisles filled with products containing harsh chemicals with sterile, antiseptic smells, one of her daughters—inspired by Thelma’s strong work ethic and practical, common-sense values—had an aha moment: “Let’s make cleaners that smell nice, like my mom’s garden, but still work like the dickens on daily dirt and grime.”

That idea led to the development of a line of products with garden-inspired fragrances, including a line of seasonals that make perfect scents for the holidays.
