Hey Friends HERE IS THE COST BREAK DOWN! I also added a link to a Liquid HE washer safe version
Zote Soap x2 (1.00 each at local dollar store)
Borax ($3.97 Walmart)
Arm&Hammer Washing Soda ($3.97 Walmart)
Baking Soda 4lb box ($2.24 Walmart)
Awesome Oxy Clean x2 (1.00 Dollar Tree)
Fabric Crystals x4 ($1.00 Dollar Tree)

Total $18.18 Im not sure how that breaks down into per load but I know its .05(half a penny) per day for 1 year but Im not sure how to calculate further.

Here's a link to a HE washer safe Liquid version. Of course I haven't tried it but it looks good!

I've been making this for a year and a half. It lasts me 6 months, but we have 8 people using it. I use a quarter of a cup per load. It works so well on stains. I will never go back to buying detergent.

You can cut down on time by cutting the Zote bar into about six or eight pieces. Then add it to a blender with a approximately one cup of Borax or baking soda. And it'll result in like a fine powder. It took about two minutes!😎

I found mixing each layer as you go easy for me personally. Just thought I'd share to anyone that is considering doing this♡

[kathleenmacdonald]

I clean houses and I always make laundry soap for my customers as a free gift.

[tayelmore]

Definitely the prettiest DIY laundry soap!

[knittenpurl]

Another tip: When pouring and mixing it all together, make sure to wear a dust mask.

[PajamaBottomMama]

I made this, and I love it. I couldn't find fragrance crystals at my dollar tree so I got them at walmart. The clothes do come out clean and smell great.

[tracyarmstrong]

next time dump everything in double trash bags and then you can toss the bags around to mix and less mess. :)

[jennyhowdy]

I use this for rugs and dog blankets and it works wonders. I also like to sprinkle some on my rug out door rugs and scrub it in.
works wonders as a tile shower cleaner and make a your bath smell Amazeballs

[ginaheisenberg]

Just to let u know they sell that Zote laundry soap already shaved! I think that can make it just a bit easier to allow anyone to do it :)But it is like 13 cents more, at Walmart lol
Love your channel, congrats on over 60K!

[christopherrhodesjr]

tip if you micro wave the zote soap it dehydrates the bar so that you could put it in a bag and bust it up with a hammer into powder rather than grate that bar by hand.

I've been using my own homemade laundry detergent for about two months now? We love it. Since I use a high efficiency machine, I only use one tablespoon of detergent. It smells great. I miss the top loader I had a couple of years ago. It just seems like a cleaner wash with more water. If I still used a top loader then I'd use 3 to 4 tablespoons. Yes I wash in hot too. My daughter washes her delicates in cold and hasn't had any problem. We add this detergent straight into the drum on top of the clothes though. A couple of the tutorials I watched said to do that in the HE, not to put it in the dispenser. So far, so good.

When I made this, I mixed as I went along, so I didn’t have to mix the giant batch. I keep the large amount in an airtight container, and a smaller amount in the Awesome Oxy container, using that scoop. I use this mixture as a laundry booster with clear and free laundry detergent. Thanks for sharing!

[stephsaysoff]

I love your channel!! not sure if someone has mentioned this but I used a 5 gallon bucket with lid and it made mixing easy by just shaking it up 😊

[royaleclay]

Sara I love your video! Thanks so much. I made this 8 months ago and my cost was $25. I am looking forward to saving even more the next time I have to make more. You go girl! Thanks again!
