A Recipe For Homemade Laundry Soap

I know that I said I would post later, but I just remembered this great recipe for homemade laundry soap. It works really well, and is very economical once you have purchased all of the ingredients. Tina uses it all of the time, and I have been using it as well. It really does get things clean.

RECIPE:

1 bar Fels Naptha Soap, or any hand soap. (The Fels Naptha Soap is made especially for washing clothes.)
1 cup of Washing Soda
1 cup of Baking Soda
1 cup of 20 Mule Team Borax

Chop up the bar of soap, place in food processor and grind into small bits. This is the hardest part, as the soap sticks to the blades somewhat. Add all of the rest of the ingredients into the food processor and grind until well mixed. Place in container. Use 2 Tablespoons per load. (About 1/8th of a cup.) It works best if dissolved in hot water in the washer first.

Here are 2 other tips:
Dawn dishwashing liquid makes a good stain remover.
White vinegar makes a good fabric softener.

Well, this really is the end of my blogging for today.
