It takes me forever to master new technology but put an ipad or anything else technical into the kids hands then they're away with it in no time at all.

Every now and again (used to be weekly ;-), maybe it will be again) I share five frugal things that I've done during the previous week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life. Hey! 👐1) Security and feeling safe at home is really important to me, really important.

This DIY homemade scouring powder is the perfect addition to your homemade cleaning kit - and if you don't already have one then it's a great thing to start off with as it's easy to make and super effective!I'm definitely planning to get back into making my own DIY cleaning products again this year - starting with this DIY scouring powder which was inspired by memories of my Mam when I was younger.
