Thanks Granny. I really liked the “how to make your own laundry soap” one-—lots of good ideas.
“how to make your own laundry soap” <<<
Glad it was useful, it is the standard version I think, or if the truth was known, so many of us go to the Tip site, that we all post the same recipe.
On other Yahoo threads, the folks are using it and approve of the recipe.
From my lurking and reading, many people are diluting their regular liquid laundry soaps, down to 1/3 soap and 2/3 water.
They save the empty bottles, divide it up and add water to fill, they say that way, they do not need to keep yelling at the family to use less, for they will go ahead and use the cap full.........not knowing it is half water.
They are doing the same with shampoo, something I need to try, for I am allergic to shampoo and laundry soap and the Downey type of softener.
I read the other day, that if you use Downey types for the wrinkles, to take an old wash cloth or cotton socks, cut into about 3x6 inch pieces, soak in the product, then you must dry it completely and you put one in the dryer with the clothes and do not need to use it in the final rinse.
She said she uses it up to 6 times....
I had heard for several years to put the softener on an old wash cloth and in with the clothes.....
I am glad you checked in, was thinking of you earlier today and it makes me smile.............thank you.
