Make your own laundry detergent

There are many sites on the web that explain how to make your own laundry detergent. Here is just one example.

Homemade Laundry Detergent

Our coconut allergic friend, Heather says uses the Grandma's Lye soap. The great news is, people save a ton of money when they do it!

You may be interested to know, if you haven't researched it already, that there is a potential link between coconut and latex allergies.

Thanks so much for your blog! I've developed a coconut allergy and there is not a whole lot out there on the internet to help those of us with this allergy.

Many thanks!

pretty sure the ivory bar soap/flake soap listed as an ingredient to the homemade detergent has coconut oil in it.

Yes, the example soap may not be coconut free, but you are supposed to substitute your own favorite soap in the recipe, like grandmas' lye soap or olive oil soap and grate it.
