Laundry Powder
Ingredients:
2 c. washing soda*
2 c. baking soda
2/3 c. Epsom salts, fine
3 T. table salt
*If you don’t have access to washing soda, bake 2 cups of baking soda for 2 hours at 400F.
Directions:
Blend all ingredients and keep in an air-tight container.
Use 1 tablespoon for a medium load, 2 for a large or greasier load.
Yield: 60 medium loads
Note: Don’t put essential oils in this as the baking soda as a deodorizing agent will weaken any scent.
You can throw in a few aspirin for whites to help keep them from greying or yellowing, when laundering with light colours.
