Elisa's Three-Ingredient Laundry and Cloth Diaper Detergent Visit Elisa at www.elisaloves.com. When you're looking for an oxygen cleaner, if you aren't sure exactly what it is just check the ingredients on the container - there should only be two. The oxygen cleaner and washing soda would be in the laundry aisle, and regular baking soda will be in the baking aisle. You can bring the cost of the detergent down even more if you can find these items in bulk at a big-box store or wholesale supplier! Baking Soda (sodium bicarbonate) Oxygen Cleaner (sodium percarbonate and sodium carbonate) Try Bio Kleen or Seventh Generation Washing Soda (sodium carbonate) Mix equal parts of each ingredient. Use one tablespoon for a small load, two tablespoons for a medium load, and ... you can extrapolate for the large load! For extra stains, throw in additional baking soda. Note: We've been using this laundry detergent for over two years, and we've loved it continuously! My husband has taken it on deployment, we've traveled with it and use it for all our towels, linens, laundry, dish cloths, diapers and the whole nine yards [of fabric]. Our diapers are remarkably stain-free, and our clothes are light and without a filmy residue of chemicals. I borrowed a pair of jeans from a friend and was shocked that I immediately felt the residue of chemicals and fragrances all over the clothes - it took me a moment to realize what was "wrong" with them!
