Homemade Fabric Softener

There is no need to spend a bunch of money at the store on regular fabric softener. All you need is a bit of baking soda and vinegar. In fact, vinegar is the perfect homemade fabric softener.

Use plain white vinegar and add 1/4 cup to the final rinse of your laundry. By the time your clothes are dry the vinegar smell will be gone.

To make everything even softer, add about 2 tbsp of baking soda to your laundry when you first put it in the washer, then use the vinegar in the rinse as mentioned above.

If you are a little worried about the smell, use this simple recipe instead:

• 2 cups cheap hair conditioner
• 3 cups white vinegar
• 6 cups warm water

Pour everything into an old fabric softener bottle or other container and mix well. If you are using a bottle, just give it a few good shakes.
