Make your own laundry soap

Use 1/4 cup per load

1 bar Ivory soap

1/2 cup baking soda wash

1/2 cup Borax  Powder (you can find it at Walmart)

Grate the ivory snow into a saucepan.  Add 6 cups of water, remove from heat.  Add soda and borax until dissolved.  Remove from heat. 

Pour 4 cups hot water into a bucket (or a container with a lid-I used a mop bucket).  After adding hot water, add one gallon and 6 cups of water.  Stir.  Let the soap sit for 24 hours.  It will gel up, which is fine (it should).  Use 1/2 cup per load. 

I made this over a month ago, and still have a 1/4 of the bucket left, pluse all the ingredients that I used to make the laundry soap.  Frugal and Cheap, but you will love it.  I don't plan on purchasing any more laundry soap from the grocery store other than the ingredients I need to make this laundry soap.  I love it that much!!
