Simple Homemade Fabric Softener

Recipe #387244 | 2 min | 1 min prep | add private note

By: Dee Coonhound
Aug 26, 2009

The most inexpencive and easiest recipe of all. The simplest way to soften fabrics and control static. Makes towels more absorbent.

1/2 cup (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    1/4 Cup white vinegar to the last rinse cycle of your wash, or if you have a center cup in your washing machine for fabric softener, add the vinegar to that at the start of your wash.
  2. 2
    Only use white vinegar,as cider vinegar may stain clothes.
  3. 3
    I've been making and using my homemade laundry soap and this fabric softener for nearly a year now. I'll never go back to commercial brands again. I have even dried clothes that I had left overnight in the dryer a second time, to remove wrinkles, with no static.

I use this for the cloth diapers that we wash. I add it to the downy ball. Works great. I also only use baking soda.
