You can save so much money by making your own laundry detergent. You will be amazed at how much money that you can save when you make it yourself. You will also be avoiding harsh chemicals and brighteners that are in store bought detergent. One of my favorite things about using homemade laundry soap is that I always have everything on hand. There are no more last minute trips to the store because we ran out of soap!
There are so many recipes that you may want to try:
If you use cloth diapers you may want to try this Cloth Diaper Detergent from The Eco Friendly Family.
If you love convenience you will love to Make Your Own Detergent Pods from The Krazy Coupon Lady.
Powder Laundry Detergent that smells great from How Does She.
Homemade Laundry Detergent that is Borax Free from The Realistic Mama. I love how this uses Castile soap!
Here is another recipe that uses Castile soap. Homemade Laundry Soap Borax free with essential oils from Mom 4 Real.
Fresh and Clean Coconut and Lavender Laundry Detergent from Domestic Contessa.
Premium Homemade Laundry Detergent from Love and Laundry. This is so pretty!
Easy Powdered Laundry Detergent from Early Bird Mom.
Mom’s Super Laundry Sauce from Budget 101. This is a really cool recipe that actually whips the soap!
I have always used this Liquid Laundry Soap Recipe from the Duggar Family. It makes a 5 gallon bucket, when you add water to it to dilute it it actually makes a total of 10 gallons! That is ALOT of soap and it lasts forever!
Here are the ingredients if you don’t want to go out and search for them locally:
 Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda, 55 oz, 2 pk |
 Fels-Naptha Laundry Bar Soap – Pack of 4 |
