You can easily make your own washing soda from baking soda.
1.Pour a pound of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, available commercially in grocery stores) onto a cookie sheet. Spread it out so it heats evenly.
2 Heat the baking soda for an hour at 300 degrees F.
3 Pour the washing soda into a jar and seal tightly. It becomes more alkaline when heated, so use gloves to handle it or transfer it with a spoon.

This is a much cheaper way to get washing soda which is priced much more than baking soda.
That is very interesting. Have you done this? Did you like the result?
ReplyDeleteI have not made this but I have a friend who has and she said it worked fine.
