In December we made our own laundry soap for the very first time. Let me tell you - there is no turning back! It works very well and is so inexpensive. Not to mention that it is very quick and easy to make.
If you have not given it a try, you should. It's worth it. Clickhere to view my original post with instructions.
We used a different soap this time and it came out a little thinner - but it still works. My daughter filled up all of these containers, plus another 1 gallon container that I forgot to include in the picture:
This is one batch! Lots of soap, little money! You should try it
That is SOOO cool!! I was just talking to a friend today about making home made laundry soap. I really want to try it. Have you seen Bridget's post about making laundry soap? http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/purityseekers/296173/ I can't wait till payday, so I can get all of my ingredients! I bet it saves a lot of money in the long run. It would be really cool to find a recipe for homemade dishwasher soap too.
Here is a link to instructions and discussion about homemade dishwasher soap:

I want to make my own dish washing soap for in the sink. I think that will be the next thing I try. I'll let you know.
