Crafters- What are you making???

[okiemommy]

I somehow totally missed the clothes pin bag idea/pattern. I have been needing one since our dryer went out almost 6 weeks ago now. Not sure what it was; a pattern or an idea, but if you would be willing to find it for me SE, I can post the recipe for the soap. It works great! We have been using it for a long time now, I learned of it about the same time that I learned about your apple butter

I am really looking forward to making it this year, and hope to included on my list as Christmas gifts.

1 bar Fels-naptha soap (grated)
2 cups borax
2 cups washing soda
1 cup color safe bleach

I love this recipe! I tried it with Zote, but the Fels-naptha smells better to me.

Ok so where would you get Zote, Fels-naptha or the washing soda???

I found a salad shooter at a garage sale for 50 cents and use that to grate my fels nappa soap, that is all I use that salad shooter for. Works great.

The Arm and hammer washing soda is different from the baking soda so watch for that.

I wash 3 to 4 loads of laundry 2x's a week. Some weeks more I do even more. I spent about $40 or less last year when I learned about this recipe. And it cleans so much better then anything I have tried before.

Congrats Okie
