Easiest DIY Laundry Detergent Recipe EVER
This has got to be THE easiest laundry detergent recipe you will EVER come across. :) It's almost too simple to blog about, but I know some people have never created their own detergent before so here it is!
Materials
- 2 cups super washing soda
- 2 cups borax
- 2 bars regular (like Ivory) soap (or 1 bar Fels-Naptha)
Instructions
- Grate soap (with the very fine section of the cheese grater)
- Add in 2 cups borax and 2 cups washing soda, and stir well for at least 5 minutes.
Notes
- Use 1-2 tablespoons of detergent for one load of laundry. This detergent IS safe for the HE washers, because it's LOW SUDS.
- You will find the super washing soda and borax in the laundry detergent aisle. Instead of paying upwards of $.25 a load, you will be paying as little as $.05 a load.
- Add dried lavender if you'd like, but I love the smell of the Fels-Naptha bar and this detergent gets our clothes so clean!
