Changed Up My Laundry Detergent, A Little!

If you have been following my blog, you know I have been making my own laundry detergent for quite some time.

I have been using the same mixture for a while now and had discovered that I was having trouble with my towels having an odor.  I know some of the problem is the front load washer that I despise, but I thought if I could change up the "formula" of my soap mixture it might do some good.

I still use the Dr. Bronner's Mild Unscented Baby Soap, which I shred with a cheese grater, but I upped the amount of Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda and Borax to 2 cups each instead of the one each I had been using.  I also switched from white distilled vinegar I had been using in the softener department to apple cider vinegar.  I then decided to add a couple of drops of lavender essential oil to the top of the detergent.

This combination is working incredible!  All the towels now comes out clean smelling and soft again!

My New and Improved Laundry Detergent:

1 bar Dr. Bronner's Mild Unscented Baby Soap, shredded
2 cups Arm and Hammer's Super Washing Soda
2 cups Borax
5 or so drops of Lavender essential oil on top of detergent


1/2 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar for fabric softener


Of course wool dryer balls are a must!

Give the new recipe a shot!
