We live in the Texas panhandle and the water is awful so our clothes get dingy using homemade laundry soap and I invariably go back to Tide.<br /><br />Your recipe has more of the actual soap (for cleansing, right? LOL) in it so I may give it a try and see if it works better than the others I have used with mostly washing soda and borax and much less soap.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02198340348534108650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504547252988171727.post-67639748710807956712012-02-03T12:24:43.992-08:002012-02-03T12:24:43.992-08:00I have been making my laundry soap for several yea...I have been making my laundry soap for several years and love it!

The only difference with my version is that I use equal parts borax/washing soda and I use my homemade soap...can vary the fragrance depending on what I have made up. It is truly wonderful stuff! not to mention, I personally think it cleans better and you get the added benefit of it being good for your washer especially since I only use vinegar instead of fabric softener in the washer.Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245338438843979692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504547252988171727.post-85261628189739686622011-07-06T07:05:37.294-07:002011-07-06T07:05:37.294-07:00Thanks for sharing again!

I have had to go back to using commercial laundry soap though. We have such hard water, and the home-made stuff didn't get the whites as white as I would have liked. Thanks for re-visiting this and helping remind us of ways to live frugally :)Kerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16836707727301350889noreply@blogger.com
