I used to always make homemade powdered laundry soap. I used an old ninja to grind up the bar soap. The detergent works just as good as Tide or better. When my kids were still in school years ago it worked great on my kids sport uniforms.
I make this and it is great at cleaning your clothes. I also add plain old white vinager to the rinse cycle for static free and softer clothes. Thanks for another great video Sara. :)
Does the soap dissolve completely? I've grated fels-naptha counterpart soap available in my country and even tho I've mixed it into a powder together with other powders it doesn't dissolve and leaves tiny white-ish stains (overall flour-like residue on all) of my cloths I'm washing. I'm using front loading machine and I set the temperature to 86-100 Fahrenheit. I must admit it's a great detergent because it suck out and unwanted smells from the fabrics so I've been able to recover few of my tees.
@@arkasza2007 Front loading HE washing machines use much less water than a conventional top loading washing machine. I'm guessing the soap isn't dissolving because there's not enough water to dissolve it in.
Great idea! I'd like to try this but the thought of hand grating those bars put me off, I don't have a food processor yet. I really need to get one darn it, for many reasons.
Sara, I make my own laundry detergent too. You can save money by making your own washing soda. You take plain baking soda and spread it out on a large cookie sheet (I make it about a 1/2 in deep), and bake it for 1/2 hour in a 400' oven. Mix it around a bit at least once. It goes through a chemical change with the heat and becomes washing soda. I buy the baking soda in the bulk food section for about 60 cents a lb. Be careful while handling the washing soda because it is somewhat caustic and can irritate your skin.
Nothing should be used for darks, except for a detergent meant for specifically for darks, such as Woolite. The Woolite is expensive, but replacing faded or ruined blue or black colored clothes would be far more expensive.
If you still make this detergent, could you possibly make another video? Could barely see what you were doing and couldn't hear you even with my volume up all the way. Thank you
This girls needs her own tv show ! Wow she makes everything

I never heard of this but I am going to try it simply because Simply Sara is recommending it. I love me some Simply Sara!🤗

try lemon juice it works great too as a softerner.
I too add white vinegar. I use white vinegar for lots of stuff. I clean with it. Rinse my hair in it. It's antibacterial, and natural.

I have been making homemade laundry soap for years, it's really good..

Awesome thank you for this great idea.

Can this be used in a HE washer? Thanks for the recipes girl you are so good!!
Your so creative
Going make so this weekend.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing
How much to you use for each load?
L Aulbert she said if u have a big load 2 scoops if a lil load just 1 🤗
You could mix it all up in a clean trash bag
Isn’t borax bad for clothes? I have a lot of darks so I’m nervous about making and using it

Do not use this garbage u will destroy your darks. These types of people only wear moomoos and curtains/sheets
Good thing I never did this lol
What a gorgeous face you have

I didn't see you add the washing soda to this. Is it 1 box with the ratio you used? Please answer as I really need to make this. Great idea.
Watch the video again, she tells you in the beginning
2 3.7 Oz lbs boxes
If you still make this detergent, could you possibly make another video? Could barely see what you were doing and couldn't hear you even with my volume up all the way. Thank you
it tasted bad, but my kid loved it!
