Today I'm going to share how you can upcycle a table using milk paints, something I learned at a class I went along to recently as part of my mission to create every day and spend a little more time on me!I love the idea of using milk paints, which is something I hadn't even heard of until I went to the Festival of Thrift last month but now that I've tried it, I'll definitely be using it again! Basically, milk paint is a non-toxic paint which contains no additives or distillates that can cause any harm to people, pets or the environment. It's made from iron oxide pigment, milk casein … [Read more...]
How to have an AMAZING last minute Halloween party without breaking the bank….
When Poundworld asked me to review their Halloween range for them on the same day that Miss Frugal asked if she could have all of her friends around after a trip out they were planning to go to a super scary Halloween event near where we live, the temptation to have a last minute Halloween party was too much for me!I'm not one for being organised though so considering the party is tonight, I only started preparing for it this morning as I've had a super busy week so haven't had the chance to get into town to go to Poundland. All is good though because they have a huge range of … [Read more...]
The Iceland Bonus Card – a great way to save for your Christmas Shop….
I've worked with Iceland before so you'll already know that I'm a great fan of the #PowerofFrozen but today I'm working with them to share some great deals with you and tell you about the amazing Iceland Bonus CardAs a working mum, I embrace anything that saves me a little bit of time when it comes to cooking good, healthy homecooked food which is why I love Iceland. Things like frozen chopped onions (how did I live before they were invented) and other frozen vegetables are game changers for me. This morning, before I went to work, I added some cubed beef to the slow cooker with some stock … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things I’ve done this week {20th October 2017}….
1) I bought a couple of Christmas gifts that I found reduced massively from about £8 to £1. I can't tell you what they are because blogs have ears but they're going to make a great addition to a little beauty hamper I'm making for Miss Frugal for Christmas Eve.2) I've been exercising lately, like real exercise that makes your face go red and your heart beat faster and I know, I'm just as shocked as you are. After we cleared out the garage and bought a few bits of exercise equipment for the kids I thought I'd give it a go myself and I'm pleased to report that I'm managing to do between 3 … [Read more...]
Living with Vertigo, Tinnitus and Menieres Disease: A new development….
You might remember me telling you about Mr Frugal and the way that Meniere's Disease has affected his life. Well, there's been a development that I thought you might want to hear about because it's made living with Vertigo, Tinnitus and Menieres Disease whole lot easier for us!He was diagnosed with Meniere's Disease a good few years ago now and at the time, he was told that there wasn't very much that could be done to help him which we accepted and did our best to live with it. I'll be honest though, it's not been easy for him and it has had an inevitable effect on our whole … [Read more...]
How Snowballing your debts will help you pay them off quicker AND save you money….
Have you heard the term 'snowballing' in relation to paying off any credit cards or store cards that you might have? Today, I'm going to tell you how snowballing your debts will help you to not only pay them off quicker but also save you money along the way!I'm sure you've guessed by now that snowballing your debts has nothing to do with the fun you can have outside when it snows or even the lovely snowball cocktails that my lovely old Nana used to make - although I'm not going to lie, it would be lovely if either of these things would help pay off your debts in any way at all, … [Read more...]
