These homemade dishwasher tablets offer a hint of lemongrass. They are an easy recipe to add to your kitchen cleaning supplies. These DIY dishwasher pods store easily in the kitchen and are frugal-friendly!

Homemade Dishwasher Tablets with Lemongrass


We have been cleaning like crazy. Isn’t that what you do when you are nesting at home? Maybe it’s spring, maybe it’s the added germs, either way, I am working hard on deep cleaning the home both naturally but effectively.

Sometimes everyday household products can be made with the simplest of ingredients. Recently, we made homemade dishwasher tablets using Lemongrass.


If Lemongrass isn’t your scent, also consider orange, lavender, or your favorite smell for the kitchen!

Homemade Dishwashwer Pods Ingredients

Only a few ingredients you might even already have in your home!

  • 1-1/2 cup Arm & Hammer Washing Soda
  • 3 tablespoons Salt
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 45 drops essential oils (we used Lemongrass)
  • Silicon Mold

Optional: We stored ours in a glass jar with a lid. I would suggest a glass jar with an airtight lid.  I see many of them come with an adorable chalk label.

DIY Dishwaswer Pod Directions

  1. Mix washing soda and salt together in a bowl.
  2. Mix water and oils together and pour into dry mixture. Stir well.
  3. Place a dollop of mix into a silicone mold and press firmly into the mold. Scrape away the excess with the side of the spoon.
  4. Let set overnight/24 hours to dry. Pop out of mold.

To Use:

Place 1 tablet into your dishwasher soap tray and wash dishes as usual.

Must-Haves for Your Beauty Routine

I have been looking for some new products to improve the look of my skin and just make me feel better about myself. I found these must-haves for your beauty routine that every woman needs in her life.

I’ve been thinking about getting a Jade Roller for a while now, so I think I’m just going to go ahead and get it. Your roll this along your face, and not only does it feel soothing, but it helps reduce fine lines, under eye puffiness and more!


If you’re ever in a place where the lighting is bad for applying makeup, this Ring Light will be your lifesaver. This light has 3 level adjustable brightness. You can clip this onto your phone to not only give you extra lighting when you’re taking selfies but to use to put on your makeup, too.


This Shampoo Brush is an Amazon Choice product and is awesome because you can use it to really get the shampoo into your scalp and to massage your scalp!


This NYX Butter Gloss is my FAVORITE lip gloss. It goes on so smoothly, and it’s not sticky. It really seems to melt onto my lips. You can get this in a bunch of colors, so you’re sure to find your favorite.


If you paint your own nails, this top coat is a must-have. I have not used anything but this Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat since I first tried it. It dries SO fast. It puts every other top coat to shame.


This Finishing Touch Hair Remover is supposed to be amazing for removing facial hair. Forget painful waxing. Just use this tool to remove hair from your upper lip, chin and other areas.
