With my old washer, I put distilled white vinegar in a "downey" ball (instead of the actual downey fabric softener) and dropped it in with the detergent. Then when the machine went into the spin after the wash cycle ended, the plug is forced inside the ball and the vinegar blends with the rinse water. With my new washer I just put the vinegar in the built-in softener dispenser. I have used white vinegar for 3 years now and will never go back to any commercial softener!
Hi Betsy, it is really nice to cut down on the chemicals we all use in our home. Here is how you soften you clothes with vinegar. Use vinegar to naturally soften clothes, sheets, and towels. Add 1/2 cup of distilledvinegar to the final rinse cycle.Jan 18, 2019
I use about 1/4 cup baking soda in my wash in addition to my laundry soap and then use the felted balls in the dryer. Clothes come out static free and without odor. I don't like all the chemicals that make our clothes smell flowery, etc because they stay in the clothes and are against my skin 24 hours a day. Big Box Stores sell the baking soda in 12 pound bags for around $7.50. It lasts quite a while.
When washing your clothing, add 1/2 cup of vinegar to the fabric softener compartment just before the last rinse cycle. If you'd like your clothes to have a mild scent, add four or five drops of essential oil into the fabric softener compartment.
To use vinegar as a fabric softener and static reducer: Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of distilled white vinegar to the final rinse cycle of your washing machine. If you are washing blankets and comforters, add two cups of vinegar to the final rinse.
