Never have I ever...

....been this excited to do laundry!! 

I've had this post on hold for a while, never had the chance to get all of the ingredients, until last night! I googled it when I first started blogging in January.. gathered everything last night and this is what I came up with! 



Laundry Detergent;

1 box of borax

1 box arm & hammer baking soda

1 box super washing soda

3 bars fels-naptha soap

1 containers of oxi clean

a big mixing container ( and in my case to leave it in)

a cheese grater 

shred the fels-naptha soap.. but not your finger!  

compliments to my photographer *Josiah*

funny it looks like cheese!

mix it all up and that's it! 

Now I couldn't finish this post & not have the softener!

Softener ;

1 1/2 bottles of distilled white vinegar

1 bottle of hair conditioner (used suave from the dollar tree) 

6 cups boiling water

1 mixing utensil

a pot

container to put it in (makes about 10 cups)

first you bring water to a boil

add the vinegar & the conditioner

Stir it up a little 

Store 

I used about a 1/2 cup in the rinse cycle of your washer or you can wet a washcloth and throw it in the dryer with your clothes.

It's so crazy how goooood it smells!!!! I did a load of laundry last night, and so far so good! Everyone said they hope I don't break out in bumps LOL Let's hope none of us do! We spent about $21.00 on these items.. It's real cheap and easy! This was totally not a #DIYFAIL!!! yayy for me! 

Want to save even more on doing your laundry? Hang the clothes on a clothes line to dry halfway and then throw themin dryer with a washcloth with fabric softener on it.
