Making own laundry detergent

Br

I saw a pin on Pinterest about making your own laundry detergent so I went & bought the items.

Borax, A&H; super washing soda, & a zote bar. Does anyone make their own? How long does it usually last you? It was 1 cup Borax, 1 cup A&H;, & 2 shredded cups on zote. It said I’d only need a tablespoon for a regular load. This is MUCH cheaper than buying detergent, but I’m skeptical about smell AND how long it’s going to last.
