Instructions:

1. Heat a liter of water and mix in Marseille soap flakes until well incorporated.
2. Turn off the heat, then add sodium percarbonate and bicarbonate. Blend the mixture thoroughly.
3. Allow the mixture to cool and sit for a full day; it will become compacted, which is normal.
4. Mix the compacted detergent with a liter of cold water until the mixture is homogeneous and smooth.
5. Transfer the detergent into pots, rinsed and dried liquid detergent bottles, or a glass jar.
6. Add a few drops of your preferred essential oil to perfume the linen (e.g., lavender or lemon).
