Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that 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.1) It rained quite a bit here last Saturday and for some reason Monty, our puppy, just wanted to play outside in it.

I think I'm pretty good at it now so I thought I'd share a few little tips with you today in case you want to make that change too.As human beings we often try to “aim to please”, it’s simply how most of us are wired.

Homemade Honey and Oatmeal Soap…
This year I've been trying to get a bit more creative and learning to make my own soap was something I've wanted to do for a while so today, I'm sharing my first attempt - Honey and Oatmeal Soap!I always thought homemade soap would be too much of a faff for me but a little while ago I was buying some shea butter from Amazon for another project when I came across 'Melt and Pour Soap Base' which is amazing!
