I never thought that homemade laundry detergent would end up being such a hot button issue for so many people until I posted about it two years ago. I guess when we like something we’re doing and we feel like it’s a good fit for us, it can be a touchy subject to discuss with those of differing opinions.
To be honest, I’ve been on both sides of the homemade laundry detergent debate. I’ve used homemade laundry soap for years at a time, and I’ve also purchased my non toxic laundry detergent from companies. And while I do have a preference for our home and laundry, I really don’t have a preference on what you or other families use, as long as it's a non toxic option.
I’m a huge fan of doing what’s best for your family. I preach this to my kids when they ask about why a friend's family does or doesn’t do something that we do. And I think we can all stand to hear this from time to time. Most of us are truly just trying our best to make sense of a very cluttered and chaotic world and in the process trying to make the best choices for our families.
While I would love a completely non toxic home, I too, realize that a mostly toxin free or less toxic home is just fine for me and my family. I obviously have some non-negotiables that I don’t budge on when it comes to ingredients in my home, such as synthetic fragrance, but otherwise, I leave a little wiggle room.
After all, stress, in and of itself, is also toxic, and if making all my own homemade ingredients causes me to be stressed about time, then in reality, this change isn’t worth the price. I promise you I won’t judge you or your family if you don’t buy all completely toxin free, organic products, wear only organic clothing or even sleep on a completely toxin free mattress.
But what I will offer you are ways to make your home as low toxin as possible in terms of what works for your family. And so while I may not use homemade laundry detergent, I do think it works for some people and homes really well. You just have to know exactly what those conditions are in order to actually get your laundry clean.
