I'm loving sharing my little DIY projects with you lately and I've been dying to share the essential oil mermaid bath bombs with you since Miss Frugal made them a few weeks ago.Miss Frugal went through a bit of a phase where she'd spend most of her pocket money in Lush on those expensive bath bombs that they sell for anywhere between £3 and £5!I have a rule where I try not to interfere with what the kids want to spend their own money on because I don't think they'll learn if they're simply doing what I tell them to do when it comes to money. Does that make sense?So even … [Read more...]
Homemade Zesty Coconut and Lime Soap….
Remember my zesty coconut and lime sugar scrub? I loved that combination so much that I've got a matching zesty coconut and lime soap to share with you today!We've totally streamlined the toiletries and lots of the things we no longer use have been replaced by homemade products (not all but some :-)) and soaps are one of these things.Since I discovered how easy it was to make my own soap I've made a couple of different versions - honey and oatmeal and coconut scrub soaps have been my favourite so far but actually, I think this one has beaten them both! It's so light and … [Read more...]
Homemade moustache and beard balm….
This homemade essential oils moustache and beard balm is a perfect gift for Father's Day, obviously presuming the Dad in your life had a moustache or a beard! ;-)Mr Frugal decided a little while ago that he wanted to grow a cheeky beard and I'm not going to lie, we all hated it! He's most definitely not a beard person but it took him a little while to realise what we already knew and shave it off. ;-)In the three weeks that he was growing it, he not only struggled to keep it looking tidy which was necessary for his work but he also found it to be quite itchy at times as he … [Read more...]

Homemade Coconut Soap…
A while ago now, I shared my first attempt at making soap with you. My lovely Honey and Oatmeal Soap was so lovely that I decided to have a go at making a coconut soap because as the weather gets warmer, coconut is definitely one of my favourite scents.I always thought that making your own soap was quite a long process and I'm petty sure that the traditional way involves something that requires gloves and a facemask which put me off having a go myself so I've never looked into it too much. But then I discovered something called 'Melt and Pour Soap Base' which is amazing and … [Read more...]
