Laundry Detergent: Cloth Diaper Safe!

Thanks for reading this post, I'm so excited to visit with you!

Dear readers and laundry washers, often one and the same, 

I have to write an update on how much we are absolutely, completely and totally loving our three-ingredient laundry detergent.  

I started making it so I would have something to wash cloth diapers in, but it very rapidly moved up in ranking and became our go-to, all-purpose laundry detergent.  



Mild, unscented, with only the bare minimum ingredients, it is hysterically cheap to make and washes stains out better than our regular detergent.  

Mmhmm, that's what I said.


We mix up a gallon batch at a time, now.


Our diapers have very faint stains (if at all).  Those of you in the diaper-washing business know that is pretty impressive!  Clothes are pristine; nothing is bogged down with detergent additives, nothing smells like detergent (or anything else, for that matter!).

If I want to add an extra punch (washing Mr H's uniforms, for instance, which come home reeking of avgas), I'll toss in a scoop of Borax.

Get the recipe here!

So fresh and so clean,

Mrs H
