So after doing some research into making my own cleaners for our home, I decided DIY laundry detergent would be one of the most cost-effective ways to do so. Using the following recipe, it is said to cost less than ONE cent per load! With four kids ages 1 to 8 years old (and now full time child care operating out of our home), laundry can be a killer. We were buying an average of 2 “family size” liquid laundry detergent containers, 1-2 softeners, and 1-2 boxes of dryer sheets every month. With the prices as they are right now, the laundry detergent alone was costing us about $30 per month.
