Easy and wonderful.....
2# box of baking soda
box of washing soda
box of Borax
2 bars or Fels Naptha OR Kirk's Castille soap(grated)
20 drops of tea tree oil(optional, but it is antibacterial)

Dump it all in a plastic bucket with a lid, stir it up real good and use about a half a cup per load.
Happy laundry day!!

If you're using an HE machine, only use 1-2 Tablespoons. This is low sudsing so it won't hurt an HE machine but you don't need to use much.
