Laundry soap with liquid castile

I found this to be just as good (and a bit easier to make, because there isn't any grating involved!) as the typical bar soap + washing soda + borax recipes you'll find online. I also really like adding baking soda. I think it helps get the clothes cleaner. Some people have skin sensitivity to borax, and when my girls were tiny we just omitted it from the recipes all together and everything came out clean in the wash :)

In a large bowl combine 1 1/2 cups Borax, 1 1/2 cups Washing Soda, and 1 cup baking soda.

Using a stand mixer (whisk attachment), food processor or hand mixer, slowly add 1 cup liquid castile soap. I prefer to use the unscented variety, and add my own smell using essential oils.

The Green Wagon

Have you been over to my Etsy site yet?

If you have you've seen my new spring line of upcycled wool scrubbers and unpaper towels. 

I couldn't be happier to let you know that they are now available for purchase at The Green Wagon in East Nashville! I hope you'll stop in and give Tara and Johnny some love. They have expanded the store's selection tremendously and are just a fantastic couple.

They've also asked me to come do some workshops. The first of which will be about making your own cleaners. It's a really fun workshop, and I am revamping all my handouts with some brand new recipes!

 

Hope to see you there!
