This is the final post in my series on How to Makeover your Laundry Room Naturally. We’ve made homemade bleach that’s safe on colors, we’ve talked laundry detergent, and made our own homemade dryer sheets (or bought wool dryer balls). Now we get to make some Fabric Softener!
Just like every other recipe, this one is fast, easy, and free of the crazy toxins. This is just another way that you can rid a harmful chemical from your house. Let’s get DIYing!
DIY Fabric Softener
