Title: DIY

Does anybody experiment with homemade products. I just made a homemade fabric freshener(Febreeze) and it turned out great you can save so much money this way.

I try to.  I am doing more and more of that for health reasons and financial reasons.  I do make my own laundry detergent.

I make a lot of my own products, I have made laundry soap, all purpose cleaner, body scrub, fabric softener, and lots of other items. I love to experiment.

I love DIY's.  I love to re-purpose items.   It's fun to think of something that is creative and original.

I do home made card, writing books, I also sew and I have tried home made stuff with vinegar. Vinegar is good for so many things like cleaning solutions, even for health solutions too.

I use a homemade pesticide. Seems to working ok. white vinegar and dish soap mix. I heard distilled vinegar is better though.
