Found a recipe for homemade Laundry Detergent online so I bought the ingredients.
And gave it a try. Dissolve the Fels-Naptha bar in 6 cups hot water on the stove.
It took a while.
Add one cup Borax, and one cup washing soda.
Pour into a five gallon bucket. We also added Lavendar (an essential oil) for scent.
Here is the link to where I got the recipe. On her site she says it makes 4 gallons. I might have done something wrong because I have very little detergent right now. Homemade Laundry Detergent
I haven't tried the dishwasher soap yet but I probably will tomorrow, since I have all the ingredients. Using these types of products puts me one step closer to being able to have a grey water system.

Have you tried it yet? How does it work?
ReplyDeletelet me know how it works.. might actually try it if it works good!
ReplyDeleteIt works fine, but I still think I was supposed to add what I made to water. So I don't use the full 1/3 cup for each load.
