Laundry Detergent

So, like I said in one of my blog earlier, I am making my own laundry detergent, just to try it out, to see how it works. From what I've seen, I'm very happy with it!! My towels just came out of the dryer, and they look, smell, and feel amazing!! I don't have a recipe link, I got it from my awesome girl Danielle Deckard (props!). This recipe will make a little over 2 gallons of detergent, and I use 2 tablespoons per load, so you can imagine how long this will last! I started using it on November 1st, 2012, so the day I use my last little bit, I will blog about how well it did, and how long it lasted. This experiment isn't just gratifying because "I did it myself," it's also going to save a TON of money! Also, thanks to my husband for being patient with me trying out all this stuff and helping me out:)

What you need:

1 large box of borax
1 4lb box Baking Soda
1 box Super Washing Soda
3 bars Fels-naptha bars, grated (this is a pain in the arse, won't lie, but worth it!)
1 3lb tub oxyclean
1 large container of Purex crystals (this isn't absolutely neccesary, but it is what gives it the "fresh and clean smell.")

Just mix it all together! Make sure you have a large container!

So, here it is! Hope its as successful for you as it was for me! Let me know if you try it!
