:thumbsup thanks

Thank you so much! I have all of the ingredients. Now all I need is a dark spray bottle. Not sure if I've seen any dark ones though...just remember seeing the light ones at stores :/

I'm looking for a recipe for homemade oxyclean :D

Sounds pretty EASY!!! Thank you :D

How do you make orange oil out of vinegar & orange rinds?

Still learning so don't laugh :/ What is a shampoo bar and what does you hair smell like when you rinse it with the ACV & green tea rinse (how do you make the rinse?)? Also when you put in the coconut oil, what do you mean by transitional period?

FINALLY did my first load of laundry with the new homemade soap! It's washing now so I'm anxiously waiting :caf It took forever for my grated soap to dissolve though. I use cold water so I put some boiling water in a cup and added my grated/powdered soap. I stirred & stirred and waited &...

Ok, thats what I was thinking :o) I'm not sure how well it'll go around my area. People are afraid of change :rolleyes: The people I told already think I'm nuts and say "why would you make it yourself"? I'm going to give it a shot anyways, maybe advertise on craigslist? I'm sure there are SOME...

This is exactly what I do too ;) My family thinks I'm nuts...my husband and older daughter will say "mom he/she (one of my younger 3) has a fever! Give them tylenol" I always say its your bodies way of fighting infection etc. I won't do anything unless it gets severe either. I should make him...

Wonderful!!! Thanks........and OUCH! :hit I bet that hurt! I'll be careful for sure..I need all of my fingers in working condition lol

Cool! Thanks! Ok, another question for the newbie :P Is it worth getting a food processor to grate the soap? I don't have one. I honestly don't have time to grate a bar of soap for an hour, some say it takes FOREVER :/ I have 4 kids (3 under the age of 4) and a herd of animals lol (1 dog, 1...

Is there a way you could add the EO to the powdered laundry soap? I'd like to make that for myself since it takes up less space...and maybe use liquid for my family since they hate powder :rolleyes:
