How to Make cheap Dish SOAP That works !

[@gaylegrindle7977]

Good morning have a great day.

[@nereidapr1]

Since the Coronavirus showed up I started to learn how to do the dishwashing liquid and the cloths detergent. where I live which is Puerto Rico. People panic and start buying everything, especially water and other necessities. I have solved part of the problem by buying a water filter, Stack up canned foods and rice, but I needed lots of detergents. In my dishwashing liquid, I do buy commercial liquid and add it to the mixture because I need it soupy. I made around 4 gallons and 4 gallons of clothes detergents. I can use it to mop and clean the house. Love it.

🐯🐯Your intro soooo pretty Love those flowers🐯🐯Great recipes🐯🐯

[@juto4825]

You always have so many helpful tips and ideas, thanks for sharing! ❤

[@vernabryant2894]

Good advice.

[@janemulvenna9598]

It’s a real joy rewatching these. Tessie if I add an inch of normal washing up liquid can I still put the resulting water on my plants?

[@hollyj2925]

I'm going to make this. I wrote the recipe down and can't wait to try. It will definitely save me money. I don't have a dishwasher. I hand wash my dishes.

[@grandmasewhappyhomestead187]

another way is watch your coupons, my sister gets those size bottles of dish soap free and that would be a way to get them and then save them for this project

[@JB-pd4ni]

good idea

[@penniematney9959]

This is wonderful tessi. My daughter and i can now make all these cleaning products!

[@TinyHouseBigMusic]

Great recipe!

[@grandiesgarden175]

[@norashuda5652]

Lemon - grass is excellent!

[@NightfallHomestead]

Oooooh we make our own laundry detergent! I actually just posted a blog about it today.. I'm way excited to watch this and make some!

[@mel112503]

I can't wait to make this!! I am almost out of dish soap, so tomorrow (03/25/18) I will be making this. I won't use any food coloring because my hubby made me a dish soap pump out of one of the blue pint ball jars. Thank you for the recipe!! :)

[@susantaylor8507]

Well now I can make my own dish soap now great idea I go through alot of dish soap

[@granny58]

Thanks KATIE !

I keep watching this!!! Every time I need more! LOVE LOVE LOVE this recipe !! Thanks Tessie!❤️

[@cottonflannigan3671]

Make your own washing soda by baking a layer of baking soda on a cookie sheet in a 400 degree oven for 1 hour. Stir twice during the cooking time. Cool and store in an airtight container. This will be $2.12 cheaper than buying the washing soda. Get 4# of baking soda at Dollar general for $2.00 to make your washing soda.

[@tammyisenblatter9138]

WONDERFUL TESSIE!!!

[@1949chefjojo]

I love this

[@MrWugiwugi]

I like you chuckle after saying 'added a little bit of happiness.' I have been using your recipe. It cleans my dishes and fun to make own washing up liquid.

[@HomesteadTessie]

Yes a little bit extra makes the heart glad !

[@willowdeanvannette9128]

Love your videos

[@denisemartinez6456]

I purchase the Mexican soap bars.. when I can find them.. called Lirio laundry soap bars..it already has glycerine. It doesn't come grated but I don't mind. I'll have to try this receipe. thanks Tessie. love and blessings everyone!

[@deborahcook7652]

Awesome, will be trying these tips...and recipe. Dish soap is one that I have not found that I like

[@vablueangel]

Thanks Tessie! Have a awesome day.. Hugs.. God Bless

[@Myfrugallife]

Thanks. When I run out, I just use liquid laundry detergent instead of dish soap. I got a ton of it with coopons/sales combined.

[@HomesteadTessie]

Great Idea !!!!

[@mneraotaibi2154]

[@HomesteadTessie]

Mnera Otaibi Thank you !!!

[@BanDanaGramma]

Glad to see this! I have made laundry soap, but not dish soap. Good job, my Tessie Girl!

[@cozykitten648]

I am going to have to add this to my list of things I want to make. Thank you for sharing

[@elizabethhendriks9030]

Thank you for showing this!

[@michelleccutler2690]

Have tried several recipes . Wasn't able to find one I liked. Will give this one a try. Thanks for sharing it.

[@theresacannon7045]

I had tried other recipes and was about to call it quites, because my dishes always felt greasy. But will give this a try thank you.

[@HomesteadTessie]

I like it and others tried it I did get one complaint the man did not like the recipe since it does not suds Most homemade soaps do not suds .He did not realize that

[@ericsgranny8933]

Great!

[@avonleanne]

oooh this is way better than the old recipe i was using from way back!! thanks Tessie!! =)

[@TwoFamilyHomestead]

Thank goodness I can type the recipe up at the same time your doing it !! Thank you

[@ruralhomesteader6650]

Great video Tessie. I will have to try that recipe. Thanks

[@heidevanness2788]

I really like the idea of a NO SPENDING MONTH. I'm gonna give it a try...

[@cynthiacarroll2355]

Good evening Tessie

[@jemmiestone5731]

Great video Tessie. I am going to give this a try. Thanks for sharing. Love you. God Bless Y'all. Hugggggs

[@alicephillips3214]

keep a small dish soap bottle of half vinegar and half water beside my sink and squirt some on any greasy item after washing with the homemade soap---it is squeaky clean then. You do not like the smell of vinegar though do you Tessie? I will try this recipe you gave.

[@thecleaningfairy]

this was a interesting video to watch.never thought about making dish soap.

[@irenerex932]

Thanks for sharing.

[@SandyzSerious]

Thank you Tessie.

[@countreegirl]

I love love love watching your videos and learning more about your life and how you make it work! I am so not that brave LOL. Love you girl!!!

[@DWORLD-ve9bs]

Hi Tessie. 😃. I like that the chemical that prevents the soap from settling is not added. 👌🖤✅

[@DWORLD-ve9bs]

Oh I almost forgot: A rig like an adjustable arm would give us a great overhead view of what you are doing inside the pot. It’s a great way to improve the content for very little money ($30) or effort. Just make sure the product safely secures the camera because you are not saving if you drop such valuable camera equipment by getting a cheap rig. It’s not anything you should do right away if the purpose here is saving money. However, presentation has its own merits for increasing revenue. Keep up the great work. 🤓

[@opalfromthesuburbs9546]

Thanks for doing this again. Had just watched the older one and it was hard to see how you did it. Was actually going to write a message on it asking for directions. You're a step ahead of me. Have a good day :)

[@HomesteadTessie]

the old video was when I first started making videos I am learning to explain things better now:)

[@Just_Lurking8]

Thank you, I just subscribed to your KZbin channel. Love the fact that you don’t use BORAX in your dish soap. Keep up the good work !!!@HomesteadTessie

[@HomesteadTessie]

Welcome Vicky !!! I am honored to have you here

[@theoldfarmerswife5915]

I hope you see this, since it's an old video. I have been using Dawn (original) for years. I like how it cuts the grease. Does this recipe cut grease?

[@HomesteadTessie]

This is what I use :) IT WORKS FOR ME:)

[@mamalv1]

I still have about 1/3 of a bottle of my previous homemade dish soap, but since I hate to run out ..... I'll be making this 2X batch today and mixing in my 1/3 bottle to it. I can't buy Zote here, so I'll be using 1/4 bar of my homemade soap to it instead. Thank you so much Tess ! I'll let you know what I think of it; although I have no doubt it will be great ! UPDATE: I used it for dinner dishes, some were greasy, but the dish soap did an amazing job of it all , My NEW FAV ........ TY Darlin

[@PattiRoseLifeHappens]

Thanks for the tip about Zote soap, will be so much easier. 🤗Hope you're feeling better!💖

[@daisyduke0809]

I'm going to have to try making some.

[@myalabamahome1125]

I've got to make some of this Tessie. Thanks so much for another great video. :)

[@highcallingofyahuah3112]

Thanks for this video.............I am looking for good dish soap receipts as EVEN NATURAL I am noticing chemicals in it. I have gone from natural toothpaste to just coconut oil and baking soda for my teeth. FEEL FRESH EVERY NIGHT. I am trying to heal and get all chemicals out of my life as much as possible.

[@carolbrazil1508]

Going to try this....thanks...

Useful info Tessie :)

[@lisarogers1036]

Tessie this is so awesome and I plan on making it today. I have been looking for a while and tried several things but I like my dishwashing liquid a little thicker than some of the homemade's make. I don't mind the bubbles and no that is not what cleans the dishes !! Thanks for sharing your secrets with us . Are you feeling better today ? Hugs lisa

[@WonderfulBlessedLife]

Thankyou so much for sharing this video i am going to have to try it. have a great week GOD BLESS

Good morning Tessie I love Zote soap I started getting mine in Mexico my son used to live there ..Now you can buy it at Walmart and Big lots for under a $1.00 a bar. I have not seen the grated up Zote I must look..Do you use the scented or unscented? thanks for sharing..God Bless

[@dymondwillow2]

Good idea. What gets me is that you gotta buy those essential oils so you can make your whatevers. can essential oils be made?

[@HomesteadTessie]

not without a expensive distiller

Is Zote soap the same as Fels Naptha soap? My homemade laundry soap recipe uses the Fels Naptha.

[@HomesteadTessie]

Yes people use Both of'em the zote soap is a citrus scent and it is pink .the other is more of a stronger soap

[@ladywytch129]

I just tried this recipe with Fels Naptha. It works very well. I might add a few more drops of essential oil because the Fels is quite strongly scented.

[@norashuda5652]

Don’t need “BUBBLES” - sooo long it cuts the grease - etc.

[@countrygirl7308]

Hey😊💖

[@zellko9080]

Would Fels-Napfa work in the same way? It is more readily available here.

[@HomesteadTessie]

I would not recommend it since that is a laundry bar ,But any other soap bar will work

[@zellko9080]

@@HomesteadTessie I'm confused. Both the Zote soap and the Fels-Napfa say laundry soap on the wrapper in their photos.

[@HomesteadTessie]

You can use it But the Fels napfa has a somewhat strong unpleasant odor But yes you can use it

[@zellko9080]

@@HomesteadTessie Thanks. Sorry if I sound picky, I'm just trying to figure it all out. I will be trying it.

[@Mal-0-vent]

Ahh you solved my problem. I can make the laundry, but I've tried 8 times for the dish. I gave up on it. Can you use this recipe making liquid body wash?

[@HomesteadTessie]

Honestly I never tried that but I think it would be worth giving it a try If you do please let me know give me an update Take care my friend

[@melindashaw7568]

Do you think it can be used in the dishwasher too?

[@HomesteadTessie]

No ,it would not work .Do not try it for in the dishwasher !

i have made my own dish soap before n i love it . but it doesn't cut the grease . does yours ?? and also i cook mine and it gets jelled . does yours jell or stay thin ?? i will give this a try tessie ty so much n have a great sunday . hugs from michigan

[@kerenwheeler1819]

kathy jo tourtois hi Does cooking it makes it gel up?

[@dianeferre1273]

kathy jo tourtois Hi Kathy... U can add a small amount of vinegar.... After everything has cooled... One subscriber mentioned that the more washing soda U use causes the soap 2 gel more... (YAY)! 💠⚫💠⚫💠⚫💠⚫ White Vinegar cuts grease very well... 😊

thank you my friend!!!! :)

[@dianeferre1273]

It would have been Extremely helpful if you would have included what the ounces eere on that small bottle... (Im watching this on March 19, 2020), amidst the insanity of people hoarding shopping, during the Covid19 Virus Pandemic. Im resorting to staying home & ordering what little supplies I may eventually need. I naturally keep things stocked up, so I dont need much... Great Vid!!

[@HomesteadTessie]

I am so sorry I was very new at making videos at this time which was years ago .I think the small bottles were 12 ounces But it really does not matter as it can be adjusted

[@sandranevins2144]

Never made this kind of dish washing soap, does it cut grease off glass?

[@HomesteadTessie]

It does for me :) I do not have hard water ,.It does depend on your water :)

[@kimburton71]

Just made the dish soap it has a very strong smell like ammonia when hot. Did I do something wrong? Will it tame down as it cools?

[@HomesteadTessie]

Kim I have no Idea I never heard of that , so strange ! Did you get exactly what I said on here there should no smell at all , did you add vinegar? no vinegar in this recipe , and did you use pink bar zote soap? I not sure what that could be

[@kimburton71]

@@HomesteadTessie yes all the same ingredients. It is getting better as it cools. I guess taking a close up sniff fresh from cooking probly not a great idea. I did pretty much mix all ingrdents at same time instead of melting zote and water first maby because I cooked them longer all together. Thanks for answering back
