• 1 cup Borax
• ½ cup Epsom salt
• 1 cup Arm & Hammer Washing Soda
• ⅓ to ½ cup lemon juice
• 8 drops Lavender essential oil (feel free to change to whatever essential oil you prefer)

Directions

• Combine borax, epsom salt, Lavender essential oil, and washing soda in a bowl until well combined.
• Add lemon juice 1 Tbsp. at a time until mixture is damp but not soaked, you want it to hold together and not be crumbly.
• Press mixture firmly into ice cube trays then tap on the counter to level out.
• Allow to dry for at least 3-4 hours before removing
• Store your homemade dishwasher tablets in an air tight container (a pretty mason jar if you have one)!
• recipe will fill a standard ice cube tray.
• To Use:
• Put 1 tablet in your dishwasher detergent tray.
• If you have hard water you may want to add some distilled white vinegar (a natural rinse aid) to your compartment where you normally put Jet Dry. The vinegar is a water softener that helps prevent spotting on dishes (plus this will also help you save money)
