Relaxing DIY Milk Bath Recipe….
If you enjoy a lovely relaxing bath then my DIY Milk Bath Recipe is EXACTLY what you need in your life!I'm all about self-care at the moment and have deliberately been a bit selfish lately and have neglected some parts of my life to focus on myself for a while. I might even write a separate post about it because it's been a conscious effort on my part to be more selfish and it's not been easy if I'm honest.I've definitely spent more time relaxing without worrying about what I could be doing if I wasn't taking my time in the bath or watching a random video on YouTube but more than … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {4th September 2020}….
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. Hey! 👐1) A while ago, I shared how I'd painted my lovely old dining room table white.A couple of people at the time asked me why I'd chosen white to paint the table as white isn't the most practical colour for a dining room table - a fact I totally get!

Five Frugal Things we did this week {28th August 2020}….
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. Hey! 👐1) I'm kind of disappointed with this first one but it is what it is I guess - I bought a tumble drier after 10 years+ of managing without one. We got rid of our tumble drier when we moved house as it wasn't the most energy-efficient model even back then and I just felt like it was unnecessary so we popped it on Freecycle and a very … [Read more...]
30 days of Frugal Autumn Activities – perfect for Social Distancing….
If you're looking for a Frugal Family Autumn Activity which is perfect for social distancing then this is the post for you as I have 30 ideas right here!Autumn has always been one of my favourite times of the year - these days it's more because I love the fact that I can snuggle in warm comfy jumpers, drink hot chocolate with marshmallows in and burn as many candles as I want to without someone telling me it's a waste of a good candle because it's sunny outside (yes, my 17-year-old judges my life choices constantly). 😂When the kids were a bit younger though, it was because I … [Read more...]
