Homemade Laundry Soap

Okay, don't eat this...

1 4-lb 12 oz box Borax, in the detergent isle

1 4-lb box Arm & Hammer Baking Soda, in the cooking isle

1 box Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda 55 oz, in the detergent isle

3 bars of Fels-Naptha soap, found in the detergent isle

2 small containers of Oxy Clean (about 3.5 lbs total) in the detergent isle.


Grate the Fels-Naptha soap using a food processor or hand held grater.

Toss all ingredients in a 5 gallon bucket lined with a garbage bag.

Use 1-2 tablespoons per load.

For fabric softener, use 1/3 white vinegar in a Downy ball.
