Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Hi Hallie and Thank you for the Welcome! homemade fabric cleaner (Landry Soap) is very easy to make and last a long time.. I made this recipe over a month ago and still have aleast a little less than half of it left and it works great and it only cost cent's on the dollar to make.. I really liked that. When I use it it makes me think back when I was little when Mom washed the clothes it just smelled clean not perfumy. Here's the recipe if you'd like to try it.. It works and saves money. :-) Eibhlin Liquid Laundry Soap Ingredients: 1 Quart Hot Water 1/2 Cup Washing soda/Sodium Carbonate ( I find it at Krogers) 3 Pints Water 1/3 Bar Fels Naptha Soap or any other bar soap, Grated (I used Ivory) 1/2 to 1 Cup Borax Hot Water Directions Mix Fels Naptha Soap in a saucepan with 3 Pints water and heat on low until dissolved. Stir in washing soda and Borax. Stir until thickened (it doesn't get real thick) and remove from heat. Add 1 quart hot water to 2 gallon bucket. Add soap mixture and mix well. Fill bucket with hot water and mix well. Set aside for 24 hours or until mixture thickens. Use 1/2 cup per load I love this stuff! My husband has had jeans that were so dirty I thought that i would have to throw them away. This stuff cleaned them! It doesn't get as thick as store bought liquid soap and it doesn't suds in the washer, but boy does it clean well! You can sent it by adding any hydrosol that you choose, to the strength that you want. , " animatronica84 " <animatronica84> wrote: > Hey Eibhlin, welcome to the group!
