How To Make homemade dishwasher tabs

2Once all the ingredients are well combined you will notice it actually will start clumping all by itself. Transfer the mixture into two ice cube trays and press down until each ice cube compartment is hard packed with detergent. If you packed them all down really well, you should use all of the mixture in those two trays.

3Now they need to dry, place them in dry, sunny spot and let them sit for 24 hours. Once they are dry, flip them over they pop out really easy and put them into a air tight container.
