• Friday, November 24, 2006 - Has anyone made their own homemade laundry soap?

I found a site that walks you through how to make it yourself. But I will buy a few packets first to see if I like it. If you make it yourself is it easy to do? How do you like it and can you add any suggestions?

What is the site that you found? I found one and then haven't been able to find it again.
Thanks,

I made ours for the first time last week, the borax, soda, and nels recipe, it was easy and I LOVE it. I would probably want to use essential oils for scent at some future scent, but the cleaning has been great, and we have 4 teens in the house. It is truly inexpensive and easy to do!

Shoot, I forgot to ask this. If you use any scents where do you get them? If you tried this can you reccomend any nice scents?

The Family Homestead is our very own Crystal Miller from The Front Porch! Ha! She has so much great information on there, I don't know why I didn't think to check back there again.

I use essential oils. My family loves orange, but I would like to try lavender, and maybe rose. I usually make a double recipe of the soap, and add about 3 tsp. oil.

• Saturday, November 25, 2006 - i prefer powdered over liquid...

Posted by panshrmu
something just wasn't seeming right with the liquid when I did it. The powdered is really easy and my family prefers it now!! though I just bought some store detergent cause I haven't been able to sit down and make some powdered stuff. Sorry, can't help you with selling you any....I am international:-)

I am a huge fan of her blog, she is amazing with the things she makes.

Where are you gusy getting the oils? Do you reccomend an online site or do you go somewhere local to your home?
