I have done this (with Fels-Naptha) in my front loading washing machine. I do not use the oxy-clean, but have had no problems at all with it. Good luck to everyone who tries it. Sounds like a great recipe. I might try it myself! I just dont mind fels-naptha and its easier to find at most stores.

Bandia—I am not really sure if the Baking Soda makes any difference. I suppose it can’t hurt! I love the smell of the Dr Bonners citrus and lavender bars! Thanks for leaving a comment!

Hi!

You know I just made a liquid laundry detergent and am loving how it works! I’m not crazy about the fels naptha I used though and am delighted to find someone who used a natural alternative with success! My liquid recipe is nearly the same as the powdered version you used except that my recipe calls for baking soda along with the borax bar soap AND washing soda. Do you think adding baking soda to the recipe would help or hinder it?

Thanks !

I have been using this on farm dirty clothes and they come out clean and fresh! With out the oxyclean, by the way.

I started making laundry detergent because I couldn’t find one I liked to use in my HE washer. This stuff works in HE washers and is a great way to use up those little nubs of soap in the soapdish!

Anna-word on the internet is not to use this in front load washers. Sorry.

DIY Laundry Soap is on my to-do list! Thanks for the tips. As for the dryer, I am devoted to anti-static dryer balls. I haven’t bought fabric softener since I started using them.
