"Homemade" Powdered Laundry Soap

I went supply shopping yesterday. I had a hard time finding Dr. Bronners Castille Soap, I figure I will either find it at Target or the Natural Grocer's and I remember seeing Essential Oils there as well. I have multiple sewing projects I want to get done today, so I may or may not make it out those items today, we will see.

The first one I made was the powdered laundry soap recipe I found on Pinterest. You can see the original post Here. It was WAY easier than I thought it was going to be!

For this recipe you need:

• 1 bar Fels Naptha Soap
• 1 cup Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda
• 1 cup Borax
• 1/4 cup Baking Soda

Obviously This is EVERYTHING for my "homemade adventure" I am not using it all in this recipe.

THAT'S IT!

I followed her instructions and it took no time. I do not have a bullet or blender (NO WAY was I using my Vitamix!!) So I used the shredding blade in my food processor and the Fels Naptha literally did look JUST like shredded cheddar cheese. I changed the blade and put it back in again and this is how it came out:

Shred 1 bar of Fels Naptha soap to get as fine of a granule as possible.

It may LOOK like cheese, but it doesn't SMELL like cheese (according to my son).

 After finishing the Fels Naptha, put it in a large bowl and add remaining ingredients.

This is my finished product (stored in an airtight container with my 2 Tbsp scoop included).

 All done and ready to get to work washing my 14 year old son's clothes! OH-VEY.

Next up is Liquid Fabric Softener...
