With prices increasing daily, it's good to know how to make some of your own household cleansers. This powdered laundry detergent works quite well for us:
Powdered Detergent
2 cups finely grated Fels Naptha soap
1 cup Arm & Hammer Washing soda (NOT baking soda)
1 cup Borax
1. Mix well and store in an airtight plastic container.
2. Use 2 tablespoons per full load.
You may not see as many suds as you're used to but it will clean just as well. If you want to, you can add a drop of essential oil to the water as your washing machine is filling up. I like lavender the best.
