All natural laundry detergent recipe!

















This recipe is for a non-toxic, natural, and cost-effective powdered laundry detergent! I have been using it for a few weeks now and it is working great! For stains, I rub them with a bar of soap and water and let them sit for a few minutes, then toss in with the rest of the laundry and it works great!
Here's the recipe:
equal parts: washing soda, borax, and grated bar of soap. Yep! It's that simple! You only need about 2 tablespoons for a large wash and 1 for a small wash. Enjoy!

Make your own soaker for 99 cents!!

Why waste a good sweater? Go to Goodwill on
Wednesday (99 cent day) or cut up an old wool
sweater you were ready to give away and give
it new purpose!


















Cut a triangle (12" by 12" for newborn,
up to 17" for a toddler) starting where
the waistband meets the sweater. Cut
off wristbands for soaker legs.
















































Put the wristband inside out over the leg hole
opening making sure RAW edges are together.
Sew seam.
