How To Make Homemade Natural Fabric Softener

There are ways to improve your house by using natural products to reduce your exposure to chemical products and be healthier. Natural Cures on YouTube uses 2 natural ingredients to make homemade fabric softener. Plus, it’s an eco-friendly alternative and you can use any of your favorite scents or smell. This is a great life hack and tip if you’re trying to slowly convert your house products with natural ingredients. Fabric softeners are a must in my laundry process because of the extra soft and fragrance on my clothes or fabric. I would make small batches of a different variety of scents to choose from. Sometimes it’s crazy to think items in your kitchen could do so much if you’re on a tight budget.

Supplies:

• 17 oz. coarse salt,
• 6 tablespoons baking soda,
• 30 drops of your favorite essential oil (optional)

Directions:

First, put all of the ingredients in a plastic bowl and mix it with a spoon or with your hands. After that, store the mixture in a seal tight container with a screwable lid or fabric softener bottle. The homemade softener will last for at least 45 days.

Next, when you’re ready to wash your clothes, add in about 3 tablespoons of the softener directly in the water.

Overall, this is a fairly cheap and inexpensive way to make a lot of fabric softener instead of store-bought products. Fabric softeners can be expensive over time especially if you do laundry often. This homemade natural fabric softener can make a big batch that will last for quite some time. Also, it’s optional to add the essential oils if you want to save extra money. I’d be interested to make a small batch of my own homemade fabric softener to see if it works.
