Top it up with some more white vinegar and voila :) <br />For people wanting that 'clean' smell in their laundry mix it with white vinegar for a rinse aid or use alone, same with dishwasher rinse aid! <br />I suggest constantly having a couple of bottles sitting so start your first in week one, start another in week 2, another in week 3 and so on just rolling them over so you always have some available and can build abit of a supply up because its such a nuisance when you run out and you have to wait so long for some more!JTsMamahttp://www.simplehomekeeping.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010841851984533508.post-53554728128686143402011-07-30T19:46:31.455+12:002011-07-30T19:46:31.455+12:00I wonder if you can add this to your spray cleaner...I wonder if you can add this to your spray cleaners for the citrus smell and cleaner?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010841851984533508.post-23553749744545088592011-07-07T14:58:58.436+12:002011-07-07T14:58:58.436+12:00Had read all these posts a while ago but finally d...Had read all these posts a while ago but finally decided to give the dishwasher powder a try in the last month. It is amazing, even my partner who was exceptionally skeptical about how successful it would be, is now telling others that I make my own dishwasher powder :)<br /><br />I have to say that I think it may even clean the dishes better than our old commercial powder.Rebeccahttp://thesimplethings-bex88.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010841851984533508.post-61895583597229493122011-06-08T15:03:11.277+12:002011-06-08T15:03:11.277+12:00Lol Em yes family cloth is not something we're...Lol Em yes family cloth is not something we're generally comfortable with is it? We don't do it but at times when we've been caught short and resorted to using cloth baby wipes I've found it perfectly adequate and in fact easier and more comfortable than using toilet paper. Maybe its coz you can warm a cloth ;) <br /><br />I wonder if its the term 'family cloth'? I mean if it was simply 'cloth toilet paper' I probably wouldn't associate the same things in my mind. When I think of family cloth I get a very off-putting image of one cloth being passed around many family members :gag: thats a totally inaccurate image obviously because once the cloth is used its popped in the wash, same as a cloth nappy or cloth wipe, but the image is still there lol I think I've inspired myself to change the name now!!JakesMamahttp://www.simplehomekeeping.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010841851984533508.post-48533427199198595342011-06-08T09:36:50.950+12:002011-06-08T09:36:50.950+12:00I don't have anything to add to it, but though...I don't have anything to add to it, but thought I'd comment to say that it looks pretty comprehensive! <br />We are doing DIY cleaners, no-poo hair cleaners, cloth nappies and wipes, baking and bread products. Definitely keen on the idea of mooncups/mama pads, but probably wont go the way of the family cloth! It's funny though, because we happy use reusable wipes on our 9 month old, but can't get our heads around the idea of doing it ourselves!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00635355004569617341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010841851984533508.post-7684110486897408622011-05-19T07:26:37.821+12:002011-05-19T07:26:37.821+12:00Man your life sounds so exciting!!
