Home-made Laundry Soap Gel


1/3 bar Fels Naptha or Zote soap
½ cup washing soda
½ cup borax powder 
~You will also need a small bucket, about 2 gallon size~
Grate the soap and put it in a sauce pan.  Add 6 cups water and heat it until the soap melts.
Add the washing soda and the borax and stir until it is dissolved.  Remove from heat.
Pour 4 cups hot water into the bucket.   Add your soap mixture and stir.
Now add 1 gallon plus 6 cups of water and stir.  Let the soap sit for about 24 hours and it will gel.
Use ½ cup per load. This soap does not generate suds.
