Natural laundry soap, laundry detergent

1 lb of natural soap shavings for laundry in ziploc bag, with the addition of borax powder.

To make laundry soap, I just throw about 1/4 cup in the washing machine if I am using warm water. If using cold water, place shavings in a jar in advance, and cover with water, a few inches above the soap shavings. The soap and water will turn into a jelly-like consistency. Use 1/2 c. of soap jelly per load. This is the only laundry detergent I use personally, and it smells so good and natural!!
