I ran out of my dryer sheets and I remember you can use vinegar for static cling....even though its the smell I love from the dryer sheets, the vinegar doesnt smell at all and it actually works. My clothes came out of the dryer static free! I just never realized that vinegar is used in hundreds of household purposes and its dirt cheap! Thanks for the post Todd!

[@mcrorfob]

Vinegar also works great to remove bacteria and such from clothes! I had an ongoing staph infection problem on my leg that lasted a little over a year. The medications weren't working. I got a new bed, didn't help. One of the nurses recommended I wash my clothes and blankets with hot water and vinegar (cold water also works if you're washing dark colours.) My staph infection is gone and now I always throw in a cup of vinegar to my wash! Highly recommend!!

[@joannekeryger7909]

..Hi, ? how much vinegar do you use in your load of laundry? I use vinegar for everything.. it's the best!!

[@LottieSue]

3 C. Water 1 1/2 C. White Vinegar Ess. Oil Chemical free above ingredients or add 1 C. Hair conditioner Whisk to combine Store

[@simpleeasycooking]

You're most welcome. Im happy you are finding it useful :)

[@cherryann966]

This is fantastic I tried it and loved it. Now I don't purchase fabric softener any more, this dose wonders for your clothes I love love love it. Thanks Todd and Gods richest blessings to you.

[@melanychairez9097]

Love your video I made some and my clothes smell Wonderful Thanks !!!

[@sammydoodle]

I used conditioner in mine that is organic and supposedly has less nasties in. It wasn’t cheap but considering the huge jar I did it in worth it. Reason I wanted to make this was more to cut out as many chemicals as I could rather than the cost (although buying said conditioner in the sale is also helpful lol) I only added that so it didn’t look like a jar of water and added extra scent lol. :,D conditioner was dr organic at Holland and Barrett uk.

[@ina12234]

Again, I'll show my mum this! This is simply awesome

[@lovenesshantambo4963]

Thanks for the info

[@lovesmerlot]

What a great idea! One of my old friends had use to use vinegar to soften her cloths and would always recommend it. I would have to first try this on my white old towels. I would be afraid the conditioner would leave a stain on my blouses. Has anyone else tried this on blouses?

[@wowtv101]

I heard you coice and immediately knew it was you Mr . Todd love the video

[@bb4camping]

Sounds easy and cheap to make!

[@carmendawnallan8871]

Thank you so much for this video fantastic Quick question can I use this on baby and kids clothes And new born clothes

[@simpleeasycooking]

[@kunalpurohit4171]

Will vinegar not damage the rubber parts in the washer? In the long run

[@beverlyannsjoblom]

The short answer is no! I live in a high end area so we have the best thrift stores. The problem with thrift clothing and linens is they smell like poisonous Gain detergent and I'm extremely allergic to toxic fragrances (all of us are but most people don't get a migraine from it like I do) I use half a gallon of vinegar (that I buy for cheap from Sam's Club) in my rinse cycle leaving it overnight. I do this about 2x a month. I have done this for MANY years with no problems to my washer.

[@cherryann966]

I use this it works great, love it.

[@PureChaos69]

Cool! I'll try this out and for fun I'll compare it to the brand name ones!

[@simpleeasycooking]

Its up to you what you use :)

[@ygoldberg1287]

[@simpleeasycooking]

Fantastic! :)

[@ophelia9720]

So easy , i’ll try it

[@cleojohnson6864]

Thanks for the tips. Can i used shampoo.

[@merinamayanglambam2686]

[@kathyjotourtois]

it really does work, i love the home made bleach ty so much.........have a good easter , hugs

[@simpleeasycooking]

[@hannykim8766]

[@DebFromAus]

[@QuRal1]

[@simpleeasycooking]

I have already made a video on that here, one of my first :)

[@greengray209]

What is the shelf life of this... How long we can stored.?

[@simpleeasycooking]

Thanks you :)

[@camokazi1313]

Very, very cool video.

[@simpleeasycooking]

wow you must use it more then I do! :)

[@georgiablueangel9607]

I love this it does really work

[@simpleeasycooking]

any will do, well, don't use oil based :)

[@simpleeasycooking]

Thanks! :)

[@lisadavid0804]

I made this and it is great when it comes to making the clothes soft, But, it does not leave a good fabric smell on your clothes. Any suggestions?

[@simpleeasycooking]

That all comes down to the shampoo you use. I used the cheapest one i could find and i found it to work for me. Different cheap brands have different smells so simply pick one that works for you. Also you can leave it out all together if you like :)

[@lisadavid0804]

Shampoo? I thought it was conditioner? Also, I used Suave Conditioner which I read a lot of people use. But, it does not make my clothes smell. :(

[@simpleeasycooking]

Lisa Vargas Yes sorry you're right, i mean't conditioner :)

[@TheMrhycannon]

try another scent maybe, rose or honeysuckle..

[@ParisianStreets]

love it!

[@jmarylastone]

how about a flea killer for dogs and cats!!! using the "vet" stuff works but my cats hate it and my dogs don't look forward to it either - plus the chemicals are mind blowing I am going to try this - summer time and I hang clothes out on the line so I need something that goes in the wash

[@simpleeasycooking]

You're welcome :)

[@umabbas09]

Wow.. Can you show us how to make home made fabric bleach Thanks so much

[@Papalou1234]

12 cups of water (me I put 8 cups),1 cup of peroxide,1/4 cup of lemon juice.

[@BIMAKINS]

Can I add lemon juice instead of essential oils?

[@msbernie1970]

The lemon juice may bleach your clothes. I know it's known for lightening hair so I would assume that it would have the same effect on clothes.

[@amsie_86]

How long would 1 jar of this last for 1 load a week?

[@simpleeasycooking]

It sure does :)

[@siobhanlong9907]

Can you use this to make fabreeze?

[@MostlyMonte]

Slurp juice

[@PureChaos69]

How much of the vinegar smell is left? (If any at all!)

[@radi6015]

How long will it last?

[@sherwetmoh.4854]

1 tbsp of essential oil isn't too much? It won't somehow ruin the clothes?

[@simpleeasycooking]

It works :)

[@karimenlee]

awesome

[@simpleeasycooking]

thanks and i do :P

[@peacedestroyer3906]

Did you use essential oils or fragrance oils? I hate the smells of any essential oils.

[@pixxaisgud5874]

Anyways, cool thing to learn today

[@eivindh.a3295]

guess that might just come in handy

[@jessydb2]

so this really works ?

[@simpleeasycooking]

hehehe thank you so much :)

[@GunnarLoeb]

1 cup water 1 tps lavender essence 1 cup hair conditioner

[@michelle10261]

i made the fabric sofener

[@petonadrew6519]

Neat

[@OLAJUMOKEable]

Pls were can l get the perfume from thanks

[@simpleeasycooking]

Thats what the shampoo is for :)

[@seoulborn67]

Todd's Kitchen Conditioner ;)

[@brownsugar1958ful]

Do it have to be white vinegar?

[@brad4058]

+frederica broadney If you don't want added colors to your clothes, then yes, the white/clear vinegar is the only thing you want to use. The acid in the vinegar is what breaks down the particles in your clothes so that they are easily washed off but the acid will not be strong enough to destroy your fabric.

[@lapislazuli4641]

I hear the cheaper the shampoo -conditioner the less parabens and sulfates

[@joancayenne9293]

Does this make your towels soft?

[@alliekara]

Ok so how do u avoid that conditioner from foaming up?! Usually when u rub any type of soap it turns white and soapy.

[@taylorm4541]

conditioner isn't soap though and you don't really rub fabric softener in

[@alliekara]

Explain the process plz

[@taylorm4541]

I don't know about other washing machines, but in the center of mine there's a little hole where you put the fabric softener. If there's no specific place for it, you can just pour a little in with the detergent :)

[@brianrackham979]

Taylor M

[@TheMrhycannon]

Vinegar alone works.. What's the point of watering it down.? Why make your own if you are going to chemicals (hair conditioner) to it.?

[@Steelo144]

cost would be your answer !

[@tinat4077]

Steelo144 Aldi have 2 litre white vinegar for $1.09 a bottle :D cheap cheap :D

[@TheMrhycannon]

Steelo144 The vinegar gets watered down anyway.. Adding water to it is redundant.. Fabric softener leaves a residue on fabrics.. Vinegar removes residue, even from soap.. The oil is just that, oil.. I wouldn't add any scent to my laundry.. There are too many scented products fighting each other as it is..

[@antonettepolonio5140]

good but it came out watery

[@jamesx2703]

I dont really get how this is a tenth of the price if a litre of white vinegar is £1 and fabric softener is £1.30 for 1.30 litres... shame was looking for anything that much help me reduce plastic use

[@Ashley-rf1xq]

Worried about vinegar's odor.....

[@simpleeasycooking]

Don't be. It doesn't stay in the cloths :)

[@nikkocy]

oh, I was sure about vinegar! :)))

[@simpleeasycooking]

It washes off easily, its just soap :)

[@simpleeasycooking]

i wouldn't go that far :P

[@MrTwinkle256]

SUBTITLES!!

[@simpleeasycooking]

:)

[@ingridburling8731]

DON"T USE ESS OILS!!! Some have a very low flash point. My hairdresser's best friend and her three kids DIED after she put some towels that had been in her dryer, and which contained oil residues from hair treatments, into a bag to rest there until their next use. They combusted and she died in the housefire with her kids. DON"T DO IT!!!!! USE TINCTURES INSTEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Abstraiit]

your accent is funny

[@simpleeasycooking]

:P

[@LaSc88]

Can't use cheap conditioner if your allergic to it!!

[@simpleeasycooking]

Is this a joke?
