Who doesn't love super soft fluffy towels and sheets? You like your clothes to be nice and comfy right? Well, here's a way to save on laundry softener.
Before you get daunted, this is labeled part 1 because there are TONS of recipes out there. I'm going to show you a natural and a non-natural. this is the non-natural, and FTR, I do use both. I DO NOT USE THESE ON CLOTH DIAPERS! they will no longer be absorbent and will ruin the diaper.
You read my faux-breze tutorial using downy (or your fav fab softener). This uses the same thing- you already have it!
it is a 1-4 part ratio. You'll also need:
1 medium sized container with a lid to hold everything.
6-10 6x6 pieces of flannel- I pink the edges to prevent fraying.
1 part fab. softener
4 parts water. -I used the cap for liquid measurements.
mix the liquid in the container and add the flannel- let them saturate and soak over night. throw 1 rag in for smaller loads 2 in for larger loads into your dryer and add the clothes. no need to ring them out first, but I wouldn't pour extra softener in, just let them drain back into the container before tossing in.
Once everything is dry, put the flannel dryer sheets back in your liquid- TADA! Super easy, saves you a TON of money and clothes smell fabulous!
Blessings!

Can I use washcloths instead of flannel?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! I would ring that out first though.
