Remember my homemade pink prosecco gummy bear jelly sweets? They taught me a valuable lesson in life - that you can add gelatin (or vege-gel) to pretty much everything and you'll end up with a jelly. Sooooo, I thought we could investigate making some homemade bath jelly and the results were fab!Homemade Bath Jelly is my new favourite thing - the possibilities are endless as you make it using your own favourite body wash. It's also an excellent excuse to use up all that shower gel and body wash that you're probably accumulating in the cupboard under your sink.I made one using a … [Read more...]
‘Things are Looking Up’ Essential Oil Roller – will help with Depression, Stress and Anxiety….
Today I'm sharing an essential oil roller which I believe will help with depression, stress and anxiety. It's certainly helped me to get through the last couple of weeks which have been pretty awful with my lovely Dad passing away.Over the last year or so, I've been enjoying learning a little bit about essential oils and the effects that they can have on your moods. I've learned that they can be energising (peppermint oil), relaxing and calming (lavender), uplifting (bergamot) as well as stress relieving (frankincense) and my homemade sleep spray using essential oils was such a … [Read more...]

It's literally a soap base that comes in cubes which you just need to melt, add your other ingredients and then pour it into your moulds.I bought my soap moulds for under £2.00 … [Read more...]

Three Prom dresses for under £7.50….
A couple of months ago I was sat with Miss Frugal watching a TV show about a group of girls getting ready for their proms and the cost of some of the dresses they were wearing was astronomical - I'm talking a month's worth of food shopping budget on the dress alone. By the time you add on the shoes, the bag and the professional hair and make up, you could probably pay for a family holiday!We have a good year or so left before we need to start thinking about prom and all that comes with it but I decided to prove to Miss Frugal that you don't need to spend a small fortune on a dress by … [Read more...]
