Homemade Fun

Today I had a fun time making canned food rotaters. I made them out of 12 pk soda boxes. I cute a hole on the top in the back to easy drop in new cans. It makes organizing and storing simple. I labeled what kind of canned food it was in the front. It will be so much easier finding that can of soup that is needed for your recipe. Also today I made "soft scrub" for my bathroom. I mixed baking soda, vinegar, lemon oil, water and dawn dish soap and mixed it all together. It makes a soft, fluffy paste. I am so excited to use it! I love how most of it is natural, minus the dawn, but dawn is gentle and safe!

Homemade Dishwasher Detergent

Tonight I made dishwasher detergent. I am so excited to use it. It costs .06 cents per load. For me this is exciting and another perk is that it's natural! I mixed: 1 cup super washing soda 1 cup Borax Powder 5 packets of lemon kool-ade 1/2 cup of kosher salt Then in the jet dry or rinse aid compartment in the dishwasher I filled it with white vinegar. I had everything in my house except for the kool-ade. We are not big drinkers of the stuff. The best part is, it cleaned the inside of my dishwasher as it washed the dishes! I really recommend this recipe. It's easy to make and easy to store. All you need is 1 TBSP per load of the mixture.
