1/2 box Borax(I used 20 Mule Team)

Mix all together. Use 1/2c per load.

DIY Cleaning Paste/Pit Stain Remover

                                                                                                           




Ps.102:24-27

24 "O my God,"I say, "take me not away in the midst of my days-- you whose years endure throughout all generations!" 
25 Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. 
26 They will perish, but you will remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away, 
27 but you are the same, and your years have no end



Blue Dawn
Peroxide
Baking Soda

Make a paste according to how much you will need for your cleaning project.
Brush on and let sit for 1 hour. Toss in washer and wash as usual. This stuff is incredible! Better than any stain remover I have tried on pit stains. It removed all the set in stains.

I used 2 T Dawn, 3/4 c soda and 1/4 c peroxide.  If too thin add more soda. If too thick add more peroxide.

DIY Dish Detergent

                                                                                                                           




Romans 14:12 So then each of us will give an account of himself to God. 

3T (20 Mule Team Brand) Borax
3T Washing soda
2T blue Dawn
2 cups very hot water

Mix borax, dawn and soda together and add ½ c hot water. Shake to mix. Then add rest of hot water.  This is better than any dish soap I have ever used. It is thin and does not create a lot of suds but the cleaning power is superior!! You can soak burnt on food and it cleans very easily.

Deep Hair Conditioner

                                                                                                                           





Job 2:10 But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?"In all this Job did not sin with his lips.


1/8 cup mayo (room temp)
1 beaten egg
1T olive oil

Stir until incorporated.
Heat for 10 seconds in microwave if your mayo is cold.
Wet hair.
Massage hair and scalp with mixture and cover head with plastic bag.
Leave on for 1 hour.
Wash hair as you normally do.

This works well for all types of hair problems. I had gotten a perm and had frizzy dry hair, not any more.

DIY Lip Gloss

                                                                                                                 






Luke 18:13 But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, a sinner!'

Old tube of lipstick
Old powder eye shadow
Vaseline

This is incredible! I used a horrible lipstick I could not wear because it was an awful color. I mixed 3 different eye shadows with it until I got the desired color. It is creamy and so pretty! I used old lip gloss containers to hold the new gloss. Start with the amount of Vaseline that will fill your container. Then start mixing the eye shadows in, then add some lipstick until you get your desired color. If you just scratch the eye shadow powder, it will be fine enough to mix. I used a plastic knife and a paper plate.

DIY Fabric Softener

                                                                                                                           
Roman 4:3-6

3 For what does the Scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness." 
4 Now to the one who works, his wages are not counted as a gift but as his due. 
5 And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness, 
6 just as David also speaks of the blessing of the one to whom God counts righteousness apart from works:

This does not smell like vinegar! It does a great job and is very cheap!

Romans 15:4 For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

1 T any liquid hand soap (I use Soft Soap)
1T dish detergent (Optional)
Warm water (fill old foam soap dispenser leaving 1/2 inch head space)
I like to use essential oil for fragrance and 1 drop of food coloring for color. (Optional)
Shake gently, you don't want a lot of bubbles because it will ruin your pump!

Job 2:10 But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?"In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
