I am always up for the challenge of saving money and making something at home. Soap is no exception. We used to make our own laundry detergent, and will resume soon with a new recipe. Recently I found a site with some recipes for homemade dishwasher detergent and decided to give it a try. I used the simplest recipe I found, and after 3 washes, the dishes are still coming out clean. Here's what I combined:
-1 cup Borax
-1 cup Arm & Hammer Washing Soda
That's it! I put 2 Tbsp. in the soap container and so far, so good. I plan on figuring out the cost difference once this batch is done. The site I used (click on source button above) also has alternate recipes to try.
Thanks for reading!
I'll have to try this one. I've done a homemade recipe before but it had more ingredients & got clumpy quickly so I couldn't make much at a time. Our water is super hard, so it's challenging to find stuff that works well!
