White Silk Purse Laundry Soap - Powdered Version

1 bar Fels Naptha Soap

1 cups Borax

1 cups Arm & Hammer WASHING Soda

DIRECTIONS:

Grate one bar of the Fels Naptha with a food processor.

{Yes, you can use the same one you use for food! What do you think it gets washed in when you wash it otherwise?SOAP!}

Remove the grating wheel and put in the knife wheel.  Whirr it about a few seconds and your soap will look like tiny balls.  Add one cup of Borax and one cup of WASHING soda.  Whirr again.  Now it will look like powder with little yellow flecks.

2 teaspoons does a load.  A soup spoon usually holds two teaspoons.

To make things simple at my house I make LOTS of this at once.

Here is the 

Super Duper Recipe:

6 bars Fels Naptha Soap, grated

1 box Borax

1 box Arm & Hammer WASHING Soda

Follow the above directions.

Yes, I know the measurements aren't exact, but it works like a charm.

I see no reason to make a tiny batch when I can spend a few more minutes  and make it all at once.

My son and I made enough to last both of our families for a year {or more} in a little under 2 hours.

FYI: That was a triple batch of the Super Duper Recipe for each of us!
