hey, my mom makes our detergent, she makes enough for like three months at once in a big kitty litter tub and fills old detergent bottles with it. we have been using it for over a year now...it seems easy to do, I'm sure there are recipies (right word? :)) on the internet but if you want help I'm sure she would talk to you about it
AMY- I have a recipe for laundry detergent too. Mine is powder form though, is your moms powder or liquid April? My powder recipe is really simple. . . .
1 Cup borax
1 Cup washing soda (NOT BAKING SODA, I found washing soda and borax at Rural King)
1 bar Soap (I use all natural organic bar soap from the health food store in Jasper but you can also use one called fels naptha that you can get at rural king also.)
Cut the bar of soap into small chunks. Place in food processor and process until a powder. I process it until its almost powderey, its still got a few chunks in it then add it to the other powders and process it all so that the borax, washing soda and soap is a very fine powder. .
Add 3 T to each load.
ours is liquid
We have never tried powder I will have to show mom your recipe
