laundry soap...the homemade kind

i've used this detergent for about 2 years

and i really like it

it's not overloaded by scent

just a fresh, clean smell

and it's safe for our septic

i use vinegar for fabric softener

the grinder belonged to my dad

its perfect for grinding the bars of fels naptha

you can also use a food processor

or

a hand grater

if you want more scent to your laundry

you can add essential oil

i can't tell you

the amount you would add

i like that my clothes don't have a scent other than

clean

so i've never added scent

i would like to give credit to the website that i got this from

but

i can't find the original source

i make a double batch

store it in this container

with the recipe taped to it

so i don't forget

recipe~

2 cups grated fels naptha (i am told you can also use castile)

1 cup borax

1 cup washing soda (not baking soda)

mix together and add 2 tablespoons per load

you will not get bubbles from this product

enjoy!
