Equipment

  • Large Glass Jar with Lid
  • Measuring Cups
  • Large Spoon

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Epsom Salt unscented
  • 1 cup Baking Soda
  • 10 drops Lemon Essential Oil
  • 10 drops Tea Tree Essential Oil
  • 10 drops Lavender Essential Oil

Instructions

  • Add the Epsom salt and baking soda to the glass jar and then add in the essential oils.
  • Stir the mixture until the essential oils and dry ingredients are well combined.
  • Add 1/4 cup to small loads and 1/2 cup to larger loads.

Notes

  • If you have hard water, you may need to use warm or hot water. Also, this mixture should only be used for smelly loads that need extra odor removal.
  • Shake or stir the mixture before using because some of it may harden over time. You can also add in more essential oils if the scent seems too light over time.
  • However, the scent will not be as strong as the commercial brands since it is naturally scented.
