After much research and read Pinterest posts, I've decided
to try my hand at making my own laundry detergent. Call my crazy...my sister-in-law already did,
but I like to know what is in my cleaning products. And since most companies don't
disclose this information (Seventh Generation does) I am giving it a try. Here
are the ingredients:
1 Bar of Fels Naptha soap (or Ivory) - grated fine
1cup of Arm & Hammer Washing Soda
1cup of Borax
optional -15-20 drops of essential oil such as lavender
Stir all ingredients together and you're done! Use 1-2 tablespoons per load. Crazy right? You're initial cost will be around $11 and 5 cents per load. I found to have a lot of Borax and Washing Soda left for other batches.
After 3 loads today; it works great.
