My husband gets his clothing quite dirty (especially his jeans) at work and it works just as well as any other name brand I've also used on his clothes. So I wouldn't worry about the "spring muddy season". It is a huge savings and great for front load, high efficiency washers as it doesn't make lots of suds.Anne Littlehttp://annesawyerlittleathotmail.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227949121668311108.post-54254968330597739502010-01-12T17:43:42.135-08:002010-01-12T17:43:42.135-08:00Thanks Chrissy_V!

I would love to hear your recipes for these products and how you feel they compare to those wipes that you can buy. <br /><br />This is definitely and avenue that I want to start discussing on here.

Using water, aloe, tea tree oil, Vit E and natural soap(locally made) I've made an awesome solition for wiping my babe down. It's leaves her and me super smooth and the tea tree helps battle fungal and bacteria issues. We use face clothes and reused wipes from Costco (since they're 100% cotton) and wash along side our cloth diapers.<br /><br />I also used this to wipe my face when I'm in a rush and don't have a few moments to spare on.<br /><br />Easier on the pocket book and the environment.<br /><br />My next task...homemade, septic friendly toilet bowl cleaner...Chrissy_Vnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227949121668311108.post-37425155406441167012010-01-10T14:07:12.434-08:002010-01-10T14:07:12.434-08:00Well I haven't made laundry soap but I have ju...Well I haven't made laundry soap but I have just made and am trying home made facial cleanser so I'll let you know how that works out.Kristi Drennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17508783907263298431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227949121668311108.post-59895765044831433772010-01-09T13:32:45.355-08:002010-01-09T13:32:45.355-08:00I have a recipe for homemade laundry detergent but...I have a recipe for homemade laundry detergent but I haven't used it yet. What sized pot did you use to heat up your mixture? Should you only use it for making soap making purposes or would you be able to cook in it afterwards? My biggest set back is finding a pot big enough and one that I would be willing to use strictly for detergent making. I might try your recipe instead, it seems to make a smaller amount.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17833662024397578930noreply@blogger.com
