Glorious pink powder that cleans your clothes!

I tried making my own detergent a couple years ago and it did not turn out well. It was this goopy snot like mess that did not work at all. I finally found a recipe that is pure awesomeness! The recipe can be found at a blog called One Acre Homestead. Now this is a powdered formula and is super concentrated since you don't add water like many homemade detergent recipes and will only need 1-2 tablespoons per load. It took a little extra time to blitz the mixture in the blender or food processor but it's totally worth it. This will help your powdered detergent dissolve properly in cold water.

I have an HE washer and use 1 tablespoon with great results!! I will use a little more or throw in some Sun Oxygen Cleaner if a load is rather large or dirty.

I keep mine in a little flip top cookie jar I found at the dollar store, it doesn't all fit in there so I keep the remainder in a ziploc bag to keep it from drying out.

Happy washing!! :)
