Why Thieves Laundry soap?
We LOVE using natural products in our home! We use the Thieves Household Cleaner, the Thieves toothpaste, the Thieves mouth wash, and more. I am in love with a lot of the Thieves line and this laundry soap is no exception! There are a lot of great DIY Thieves cleaner recipes and this is one of my favorites.
Thieves Laundry Soap is affordable
This easy laundry soap hack gets me way more bang for my buck and will make 64 loads out of each bottle that I make up which comes to about $7.81 per bottle for all natural non toxic laundry soap!
Making your Laundry Soap
You will need:
- Thieves Laundry Soap
- Thieves Household Cleaner
- Three plastic pump bottles (32 oz)
- Essential Oils of choice (I used Lavender and Lemongrass)
- A funnel
- Water
Step one:
Pour your Thieves laundry soap equally distributed into the three plastic pump bottles, using the funnel.
Step Two:
Add 2 capfuls of Thieves household cleaner to each of the three bottles.
Step Three:
Add 30 drops of essential oils to each of the three bottles – I use 15 drops of Lavender and 15 drops of Lemongrass.
You are done! Now you have three full bottles of laundry soap! Two-three pumps per load and you are all set! These will last you a long time!

what size bottles are you using? are they glass or plastic and where did you find them?
I also love the thieves cleaner an I would love to try this recipe. What size pump bottles did you use.
I used 32 oz bottles
Love this! Going to try today!
Do you use the whole bottle of laundry soap between the three plastic bottles. Then after oils are in add water to fill bottles
How did you make the labels?
Pretty nice post. I just stumbled upon your weblog and
wanted to say that I’ve truly enjoyed browsing your blog
posts. In any case I’ll be subscribing to
your feed and I hope you write again very soon!
thank you so much!
How many ml is your pump bottle? Did you add water? Lastly, 2 pumps is good for 1 washload? I am using a front load washiing machine. Thanks
It only takes 2 squirts? That doesn’t seem like enough. Can you clarify.
I’d like to know what size bottles to use for the laundry soap hack.
Thanks
I used 32 oz bottles
Is this method safe for HE washers?
I have an HE washer and it has been fine 🙂
Thank you very much for this laundry hack. I just ordered the Thieves laundry detergent and I will definitely take your advice!
Awesome! You will love it!
I really like this idea and I need tot ry it
Great hack! Could you explain your cost breakdown? If the bottle of detergent costs $29.50, that would be at least $9.83/bottle, not $7.81. Am I missing something? Thanks for the help!!
Hello my friend! I want to say that this article is amazing, great written and include approximately all vital infos.
I would like to see extra posts like this .
Nice post. I was checking constantly this weblog and I’m inspired!
Extremely useful information specially the closing part
🙂 I handle such info a lot. I used to be seeking this particular info for a long time.
Thanks and best of luck.
Is this an old post? The thieves laundry soap wholesales prices is $29.50. I’m curious how you get $7.81 per a bottle if you split into three bottles.
Good info. Lucky me I ran across your site by accident (stumbleupon).
I have saved as a favorite for later!
I’m assuming you fill up the rest of the bottle after adding the 30 drops of YL oils, with water, correct? Thanks so much!!
What are you topping the rest of the bottle with after the essential oils? Is it then filled with water or more laundry soap? The picks show the soap only filling the bottles partially before the oils are added but then the final pic shows them full. That’s why I’m asking. Thanks for the additional info. I can’t wait to make the switch to Thieves!
Hello!
I’ve made a laundry soap using my essential oils, truly the clothes are very clean and they have a pretty good aroma for long time.
Thanks for sharing this post!!!
How many ounces are used per load?
Did you fill the remainder of the bottle with water and if so, just tap water or distilled, purified, spring? Thank you
I did tap
LOVE this laundry detergent recipe! I am just mixing my second batch. Appreciate the links to purchase the pump bottles – that’s so helpful! I am going to add a few more EO drops because the family is used to a stronger fragrance in their clean clothes. Our clothes smell good but we’ll see if more oil drops adds to the fragrance. Thanks so much!!
