Tip #1 - Homemade washing detergent to use with your Unique Babeez Nappies and Toilet Training Accessories

The ingredients can be purchased from most larger supermarkets around the country.

1 Bag of Lectric Soda (also referred to as Washing Soda)

1 Tub of Borax

You will need an icecream container or similar for storage (I found a 2L plenty enough)

Empty both ingredients into the container, Close the lid and ensure of even mixing throughout.

add a Teaspoon to the container for ease of use, (I just had a larger plastic teaspoon from one of the kids birthday parties one year)

When washing your nappies all you need is 1 tsp per 7kg load for a top loader (remember to use no more than half this for front loaders) and my nappies and other washing always comes out smelling fresh and clean.

The Borax is a natural whitener so there is no need for any use of harsh detergents like napisan or the like.

I hope you can enjoy use of this recipe too!
