Peggi Anne's Notes:

A friend of mine passed this on to me as someone did to her.

I mixed it up & tried it on sheets & clothes & it works great, thus prompting me to name it SOFT AS RAIN fabric softener.

 

Directions

1
Mix all ingredients together.
2
This can be added to laundry like any other fabric softener.
3
If you prefer dryer sheets, pour one part softener and three parts water into a container.
4
Add a clean sponge and add to the dryer as you would a dryer sheet.
5
NOTE: I mixed it up & tried it on sheets & clothes & it works great, thus prompting me to name it SOFT AS RAIN fabric softener.

I only mixed up 1/2 of a batch to start with. I knew I would only be using it with a sponge, so, instead of mixing 1 part softener with 3 parts water every time, I just did the whole (half batch) this way & it made almost 5 quarts of it. Then I can just dip my sponge in it every time & half squeeze it out & just throw in dryer. I bought the cheapest conditioner also. My sheets were so soft & cuddly.

I already make my own laundry detergent so I'm interested in this. Please let me know if the vinegar dominates - I don't want to have everything smelling of vinegar! :)

I made this, and used it. How easy and wonderful. I had tons of "samples" from hotels so this was a great use of that conditioner - some smelled like citrus and added a nice scent! Worked great!

Oh, thanks. I learned something new. Just found where to rate recipes. :) I didn't use a sponge; I poured it into the fabric softener dispenser as directed.
