Chapter Twenty-Seven
Homemade Laundry Detergent
Makes 300-500 Loads
1 (4lb 12 oz) box Borax
1 (3lb 7 0z) box Super Washing Soda
1 ( 3lb) container OXY clean (you can adjust this amount to your preference. I use a little less.)
2 bars soap grated—one Fels Naptha, one other favorite soap
1 (2lb) boxes Baking Soda
1 bottle Downy Unstopable Scent Booster
Dump all the boxes into a large bucket to mix together. Mix outside to avoid inhaling soap powder.
Use a fine cheese grater to grate your soap. Use a large wooden spoon to stir all of the ingredients together, making sure that your soap flakes are blended well.
