DIY fabric softeners are the perfect answer to all of these situations and more. One of the great things about using a homemade laundry softener is how great your clothes feel when you pull them out of the dryer. Using a homemade fabric softener your clothes won’t have that artificial scent that store bought softeners leave behind.

Clothes washed or dried with homemade fabric softeners will not have that soft chemical feel to them. Using a homemade fabric softener might get your clothes as soft as store bought softener, but it will leave your clothes feeling softer than if you had used nothing at all and no more static cling.

DIY Fabric Softeners

There are two types of homemade fabric softeners, just like the store-bought versions. You have the choice between fabric softener you add to the rinse cycle of your washing machine and the fabric softener for the dryer. There are homemade laundry softener recipes for both types, what one you use depends on personal preference.

Wool Dryer Balls

These are one of the easiest homemade fabric softeners to use as they don’t require you to add anything extra to your laundry. The wool balls are merely tossed into the dryer and will last up to 1000 loads.

With wool dryer balls you only want to dry medium or small sized loads as the balls need room to work. Most people find that three dryer balls are the most effective. You can also add a few drops of essential oils to each ball if desired.

If you use essential oils, allow the oils to soak into the balls for 20 minutes before using them. Before using dryer balls with essential oils you need to dry your laundry completely, then add the balls and run a non-heat setting for ten minutes. Non-heat settings will also prevent clothes from shrinking.

Vinegar Fabric Softener

Using a vinegar spray is much better than washing towels with vinegar to get the same softening effect, as the vinegar smell goes away with the spray.

• Easy Vinegar Homemade Fabric Softener Recipe
• 2 cups white vinegar
• 3 teaspoons eucalyptus essential oil
• Spray bottle

Mix white vinegar and essential oil in the spray bottle and shake to mix well. Shake the bottle before each use. Spray ten squirts directly into the dryer with the wet clothes. Make sure clothes dry thoroughly to prevent a vinegar smell.

Baking Soda Fabric Softener

Add ½ cup baking soda to your washing machine with the rinse water for a natural fabric softener. The baking soda works to restore the pH levels inside the washing machine.

As baking soda doesn’t contain harsh chemicals, it is a great fabric softener for people who have allergies or sensitive skin and works well with homemade laundry detergent.

DIY Fabric Softener Crystals

Fabric softener crystals leave your laundry smelling clean and fresh for days to come. Crystals can be used per load or mix into your homemade laundry soap.

• 4 cups Epsom salts
• 40 drops of essential oil – your choice of scent

Place Epsom salts into a plastic container and add the essential oils. Mix well. Place in an airtight container and add one to two tablespoons to each load of laundry.

Fabric softener isn’t just for your clothes. To remove wallpaper glue from walls with fabric softener, dissolve a couple of tablespoons of this recipe into warm water. Use a rag to spread over the adhesive and let it soften. Wipe clean.

Homemade Naturally Scented Fabric Softener

Get your clothes smelling fresh and feeling soft with a naturally scented fabric softener. So quick and easy to make you can make several batches at once for a variety of scents.

• ½ cup baking soda

In a glass bowl, mix salts and essential oils. Add the baking soda and mix well. Place the homemade fabric softener into an airtight container.

If you plan on making additional batches using different scents be sure to label the container. Add two tablespoons directly onto your clothes before the rinse cycle.

Baking Soda & Vinegar Homemade Fabric Softener

Baking soda aids in the elimination of bad odors, while vinegar works to leave clothes feeling soft. Add a drop or two of essential oils for a fresh and delightful scent.

• 1 cup baking soda
• 6 cups vinegar
• 15 drops of essential oils – can use more than one scent

Add vinegar and essential oils into a large mixing bowl. Mix in baking soda and allow the fizz to settle. Once settled pour fabric softener into a container.

Use one cup or less depending on the size of the load. Fabric softener needs to go into the fabric softener compartment.

The liquid fabric softener can also create a dryer sheet, by pouring ¼ cup of the fabric softener onto a clean washcloth and tossing it into the dryer.

• 3 cups white vinegar
• 2 cups hair conditioner – Suave Professional Scents works best
• 6 cups hot water

Add ingredients together in a large bowl. With a whisk combine all parts thoroughly. Do not shake the mixture as it will start foaming. Add two tablespoons to your washing machine for small loads and ¼ cup for large loads.

Homemade Liquid Fabric Softener

The vinegar in this recipe will leave clothes feeling soft and help remove any soap residue left on clothes during the wash cycle.

• 2 cups of water
• 2 cups white vinegar
• 1/8 cup vegetable glycerin
• 10 drops essential oils of choice

In a glass jar mix water, glycerin, and white vinegar. Add essential oils and stir all ingredients together. You can also secure the glass jar with a lid and shake to combine.
