Add the borax and washing soda then add a lot of water to make it. I like it gooping when it gets chilled- you can almost cut it. <br />The dry is just all the ingredients blended together- the Food Processor makes this go really fast.Muummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07199901555071393397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498776426470802590.post-73275856166535496172011-09-06T20:51:25.378-04:002011-09-06T20:51:25.378-04:00This is great!

It really saves pennies! I have a bucket from the bakery that I use for soap making- I use my food processor to grind the soap up. I have three buckets and a plunger to wash, rinse and carry the clothes to the line. Now if only the rain would stop!! It does leave the clothes softer from the rains, but it takes forever to dry in this weather!Muummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07199901555071393397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498776426470802590.post-72619276398676179242011-09-06T01:59:01.083-04:002011-09-06T01:59:01.083-04:00This is great!

I ran out of that this [ast week so will start using my home made this week. But I made the liquid version of it.
