Hi all, does anyone make their own laundry powder/liquid that wouldn't mind sharing a recipe please? I used to make it years ago with soap flakes, soda crystals and borax. Borax seems to be impossible these days and I can only find borax substitute. I have got liquid soap flakes, washing soda and green bleach, but am unsure of quantities to mix together to keep in a bottle, any help and Ill be most grateful, thank you

I’ve made similar before, nothing too precise:
1 cup liquid soap
1 cup washing soda
about half a cup borax substitute
then a few litres of hot water
Dissolve the soda first in hot water, then add the soap. It might thicken when it cools, just give it a shake before using.
