Sorry I've been a bit quiet here, still getting my head around this business gig!!
Anyway, with the cost-of-living going up for so many I thought I'd share an easy and cheap washing powder recipe with you. I've done the sums & it adds up to .36cents PER LOAD!!!! Not sure many store bought powder would beat that!
1 Bar of Velvet soap 1 cup of washing soda
1 cup of borax 20 drops lemon or lime essential oils
optional: 1 cup of oxygen booster
Blitz soap in a Thermomix or food processor until very fine.
Carefully mix with the washing soda, borax and Oxygen booster, use gloves or a spoon as these can by drying if used directly on skin.
Add essential oils and mix well.
Store in an air-tight glass jar.
Other Oil Options:
Lavender Peace & Bergamot
Lemongrass or Geranium
Lemon and Wild Orange
Have fun creating new scents!! I have Rose & Geranium currently.
As always, if you need help purchasing oils, reach out!!
