Homemade Laundry Detergent
It's easy (and inexpensive) to make your own laundry detergent in minutes. And you only use a tablespoon or so with each load. So it lasts a long time.
Ingredients
- 1 5.5-Ounce Bar Fels Naptha Laundry Soap
- 2 Cups Washing Soda
- 2 Cups Borax
Instructions
-
Grate the entire 5.5-ounce bar of Fels Naptha finely using a food processor or cheese grater
-
In a container that has a tight-fitting lid, combine the grated Fels Naptha, washing soda and borax.
Shake to mix well.
Store in a sealed container that is properly labeled. Use 1 to 2 tablespoons per load.
Recipe Notes
NOTE: Since the effectiveness of any detergent depends greatly on the hardness of your water, experiment by using the lesser amount, and then increase as necessary.
