Lets start with the big one!!
LAUNDRY
What You Will Need:
2 Cups of Hot Water
1 Cup of Baking Soda
1/3 Cup of Salt
1 Cup of Castile Soap
*optional* 10 Drops of Essential Oil (lavender is popular)
Combine two cups of warm water, 1 cup of baking soda and 1/3 cup of salt in a gallon jug. You can use an old rinsed out laundry jug if you like. Make sure the lid is placed securely on the jug and shake well.
NOTE…the ingredients will separate. No need for them to dissolve together. Because chemicals are left out of this recipe, they have no bonding agent. Just give it a shake each time before using.
For each load of laundry, use 1/4 cup of this detergent! Clothes come out smelling wonderful and super clean! This mixture doesn’t suds much, making it perfectly safe for HE washers as well! Remember to shake well before each use!
