The Best Homemade Laundry Detergent Recipe
  1. Grate a pure bar soap into 1 cup of flakes with a box grater.

  2. Combine 2 cups of Borax, 2 cups of washing soda, and 1 cup of your grated soap flakes in a container with a tightly fitted lid. Mix well with a wooden spoon and promptly seal the container.

  3. Label the container to indicate what it is and include directions on using the detergent.

  4. Keep the laundry detergent in an airtight container to prevent clumping.
