Stain Removal
Usually, I just use some of my homemade laundry soap and scrub it in, and throw it in with the wash.But for the stubborn stains, try this:
HOT WATER (enough to fill a big, clear plastic tub) , equal parts(about a cup of each) BIZ and the blue DAWN LIQUID DISH DETERGENT.
I throw all the stained clothes into the tub of hot water ( make sure the clothes are all the same color, don’t mix colors and whites) and let it sit for a couple days. if the stains are still there, I leave them in the water up to a week. then I dump the entire tub of clothes and soapy water into the washer. If there’s still stains, I repeat the process. (THIS FORMULA IS VERY SLIMY SO WEAR GLOVES)
For heirloom pieces, the only difference is rinse it well and then lay the item on a big towel, roll it up like a long snake, and then wring the excess water out. Hang it to dry.
It’s worth a try, the fabric/clothes are ruined anyway so why not try it out!
I’d love to get some comments on this subject, so let me know what you think! (success? bad experience? I want to know!)

Hey, I just noticed your blog on facebook. Great ideas! I actually used a similar recipe just last week to get stains out of my sons blessing outfit. I filled the washer with hot water and mixed 1 cup laundry detergent, 1 cup cascade (for the dishwasher) and 1 cup biz. Let it sit overnight and then run the washer as normal. It worked great. No more stains.
