Laundry Soap Recipe

My husband does all of the work on our vehicles and this often equates to some very grimy clothing. Traditional laundry soaps never seem to get his clothes as clean as I would like. A few years ago I started experimenting with homemade detergents and thought I would share a recipe for one that I love. This is also good for stained baby clothes (just double rinse).

# Powdered Laundry Detergent

# 1 Cup Grated Fels Naptha Soap
# 1/2 Cup Washing Soda
# 1/2 Cup Borax
# For light load, use 1 Tablespoon. For heavy or heavily soiled load, use 2 Tablespoons.
