because so many have asked...here it is...

The recipe to the laundry soap I make... you will need 4 c. of borax 4 c. of washing soda 1 bar of fels naptha soap 1 bar of ivory soap mix the borax and washing soda in a bucket. then cute the bars of soap into a few squares. put several squares on a paper towel and place in microwave for about a minute, they should swell up and the ivory will look like a marshmallow. make sure they are puffed well. but do not put in too long as it WILL burn. then allow them to cool for about 10 mins or so. then using a cheese grate, grate the bars into the bucket. they will flake, this is normal and what you want. do this until all of the bar soap is in small flakes. close the bucket tight and shake. also shake before each use as the flakes will settle some. doing this right the bucket should last a couple of months. you only use about a table spoon of it. you do not need much and it gives your clothes a light scent like a baby. it is awesome! each load costs about .06 cents. This is one way to save some money and still get good stuff! It is a little work but it is worth it. we save tons each month! I have more tips and recipes to come. it is not just stuff for big families. my recipes can be broken down or even added to if you need more. There is no reason to pay high prices and be broke when you can work a little harder and save money! please leave some input for me, or questions... LIGHT & LOVE TO ALL!
