Fabric Softener is the #1 cause of indoor pollution. Whenever you smell that"laundry smell," you are inhaling toxic VOC"S. Here is how to make your own natural fabric softener

Conventional fabric softeners are full of toxic chemicals. Making your own fabric softener is very easy and cost effective . Additionally, using   homemade cleaning products helps keep harmful chemicals away. Vinegar is cheap and nontoxic. It naturally removes soap residue, and helps with static reduction during drying. Vinegar contains small amounts of sodium and  potassium, which help soften hard water. Homemade fabric softener ingredients are combined with water to make a solution you can store in a container and use each time you do the wash.

Natural  Homemade Fabric Softener

Ingredients:

1 gallon white vinegar
30 drops of essential oil (Go to Amazon.com and look for your favorite essential oil. I recommend 10 ml (Lavender, Tea Tree, Eucalyptus, Lemongrass, Orange, Peppermint) by Kis Oil's)
The essential oils will provide the sweet smelling scents that you like that come with regular fabric softeners.

Mix ingredients together and pour into a storage container.

To use:

Dilute the vinegar mixture  with water before being used in your laundry.  For regular sizes loads, mix 1/4 cup of vinegar mixture with 3/4 cups of water. Pour the natural fabric softener into your washer during the final rinse cycle.
