Laundry Soap Recipe

1/2 bar Fels Naptha or handmade castille soap grated
1 cup washing soda (not baking soda)
1 cup borax powder

A bucket about 2 gallon size.  Grate soap and put in large pan on stove with about 6-8 cups of water. When soap melts, add washing soda and borax and stir till dissolved. Now you can remove th pan from heat. Pour 4 cups of hot water into the bucket and add soap mixture. After stirring well, add 1 gallon plus 6-8 cups of water, again, stir well. Let soap sit till it gels, about 24 hours.  You only need to use about 1/2 to 3/4 cup a load!  Cost…pennies per load!
