Homemade Powdered Laundry Soap
Homemade Powdered Laundry Soap
1 cup grated Fels Naptha Soap (reading online, it looks like you can use other mild bar soaps as well)
1/2 cup washing soda
1/2 cup borax
*If you grate an entire bar of Fels Naptha, adjust washing soda and borax amounts to 1 1/3 cups.
Mix and store in airtight container or bag. For light loads, use 1 tablespoon; normal loads, 2 tablespoons; heavy loads, 3 tablespoons.
This detergent will not make suds in your washer. Don't be alarmed. Fels Naptha is a pure soap and typically makes little or no suds in the water. This makes it ideal for the new High Efficiency washers as well as traditional washers. You will also notice the need to either reduce or eliminate laundry softener.
