Today, I wanted to share a way easy recipe for DIY Homemade Dishwasher Tablets. I love the smell of my dishes after the wash is finished up... inhale the delightful smell of your essential oils! Not only will you love the smell but your dishes will thank you for not poisoning them with those other dishwashing soaps/tablets out there. Gross and HIGHLY toxic!
Anyways, let's begin shall we?
What you will need:
1 1/2 cups Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda
3 Tablespoons Salt (course salt)
1/2 cup of water
45 drops essential oil of choice (lemongrass, grapefruit or lemon etc)
Silicon mold
Directions:
Mix washing soda and salt together in a large bowl.
Mix water and essential oils together in a smaller glass bowl and pour into dry mixture. Stir well.
Place a dollop of mix into silicone mold and press firmly into the mold. Scrape away the excess with the side of your spoon.
Let set overnight/24 hours to dry. Pop out of mold and store in a glass container.
I add 2 teaspoons of "Citric Acid" with 1 tablet into my soap dispenser area with each load. I have hard water and the Citric Acid helps keep the scum deposits from forming on my dishes and inside walls of our dishwasher. *** DO NOT add Citric Acid into your molds with the tablet mixture. I tried that and it makes your mixture rock solid and you won't be able to make your tablets.
And there she is folks... DIY Homemade Dishwashing Tablets! Let me know how you like them and how delightful your dishes smell. Have a lovely rest of your week ya'll.
Feel free to re-steem and share with your friends. @sending-arrows
