How to make Homemade Cleaning Spray I'm THAT parent who gives their children daily jobs to do around the house and refuses to let them on any electronics until the jobs are done - a fact which doesn't always go down with my two if I'm honest as I know that a lo of their friends don't have to do much at all around the house.One job that they both love doing (I say love, I mean that they hate it less than their other jobs ;-)) is polishing and I have Master Frugal polish the living room sideboard and everything on it every day whilst Miss Frugal has to polish our wooden table every day and … [Read more...]
Free Printable Uplifting Colouring Pages to lift your mood….
If I'm honest, the jury's still out here about whether I think colouring pages are actually relaxing or whether they make me more stressed as I worry about what colour to use where and whether I'm staying within the lines or not.

Homemade dough balls – easy and delicious….
Have you ever had a go at making your own homemade dough balls?We love making them because they're not only easy to make and delicious to eat, they're also really versatile.

65 Free or Frugal Valentines Gift ideas for the one you love….
I love the idea of Valentines Day as a day to celebrate your love but I really don't think all of the commercialisation of the day is necessary. Almost as soon as Christmas was over, the shops were stocking up on all things pink and red in preparation for the day when couples feel almost obligated to buy something that costs more than it should just because it's pink, red or has a heart on it to show how much they love their partner.Don't get me wrong, we did the whole Valentine's gift thing the first few years that we were together but these days, we make our presents more about the … [Read more...]
