Home made Laundry Soap

 Hello

First task this morning was to make laundry soap.

With lots of laundry to do It was a must.

I had finished all the children s thing but needed our things done.

In the food processor I greated a bar of soap.

I used the pink this time.

I better go fetch some more of these bars for they can be hard to find.

Best place is a Hispanic store.

Melt is in a quort of hot water slowly.

ake sure it is all melted

 

 Like my new bucket?

It has wheels and a insert for the cleaners and such.

Here I put 3/4 full in a 4 gallon bucket of VERY hot water.

One half Cup of each borax and wuaper washing soda (found in the laundry isle)

Now these allone are around $5 each but they go a very very long way.

 

 Once all is melted carefully pour the hot soap into the water stir, then add the borax and soda.

I measured it into the ceramic.

(That was spun on a wheel years ago) I wish sometimes I could do that art again.

Stir...

Heads up!

It will thicken drascally before this is all said and done.

Don't panic if it looks watery.

Leave a bit of head room because this will need to be shaken free as you open it. It really does thicken up.

 

 $2.00

Worth of the very best laundry soap.

No softer is ever needed.

45 minutes labor.

I just made well over $40. for me efforts, or should I say saved my family that income.
