DIY: Homemade Powdered Laundry Detergent

Simple & Easy Homemade 3 Ingredient Powdered Laundry Detergent Recipe


Ingredients:
1 Box Arm & Hammer Washing Soda (55oz)
1 Box Arm & Hammer Baking Soda (80 oz / 5lbs)
2 bars of Castile Soap

Directions:
First you need to grate your soap.  Next, mix both the Washing Soda and Baking Soda into an air tight container.  Then add your grated castile soap and mix thoroughly. Scoop out 2 oz per load for small loads or 4 oz for larger loads. 

Castile soap is an optional ingredient.  I've found that this soap does not dissolve in our hard water, therefore I can totally cut that ingredient out and still have a great laundry detergent recipe!  

I've also noticed that using this homemade recipe gets my laundry more cleaner than store bought brands.  I have found it actually cleans much better and actually gets rid of smells instead of covering them up like store bought brand detergents.
