- 1). Place four soap nuts in a drawstring muslin bag. Pull the drawstring tight and then tie it so that the nuts are secure inside of the bag.
- 2). Begin filling your washing machine with warm water, then put the soap nuts into the machine along with your dirty laundry. If your clothing requires washing on cold, simply soak the soap nuts in a cup of hot water for three minutes prior to adding them to the wash load.
- 3). Wash your clothing normally. When the wash cycle comes to an end, remove your laundry from the machine and set aside the muslin bag of soap nuts. They may be used up to four times before needing to be replaced. You will know that it is time to replace your soap nuts when they become mushy and gray.
