1/2 bar soap
4 cups of water
1/4 cup of Borax
a few drops of essential oil (optional)
1 or 2 gallon container (I had a 1 gallon milk jug so that is what I used)
Using a hand grater or food processor grate soap. Place soap shavings into a medium size saucepan. Add in water. Heat over medium-low heat to melt soap. Heat over medium-low heat just to bring to temperature. The soap does not need to be melted completely. DO NOT ALLOW TO BOIL! Pour in the borax powder & stir until completely dissolved. Mixture will become thick and gel like.
Pour mixture into a 1 gallon milk jug. Fill container the remaining way with more water. Cover with tight fitting lid. Mixture will thicken as it cools.
To use: pour into pump top soap containers as you normally would.
