I've been making homemade Febreze for years now and often share in my weekly Five Frugal Things posts when I've made up a new batch but today, I'm going to update and reshare the original post when I told you about it for a couple of reasons. Let me tell you why...The first reason is simply that I treated myself to a new spray bottle as the one I used to use was looking more than a bit grubby and I just wanted to show off the prettiness of it although it's shiny white with shiny rose gold lettering on it so definitely doesn't photo as well as I wanted it to. 😂. And … [Read more...]

Homemade Cuticle Oil…
Do your nails a favour with this homemade cuticle oil!I know I've said this before but everyone has their own reasons for being frugal and one of my biggies is that I want to save money wherever I can so I can afford treats and nice things in life without having to worry about paying for them. So, I spend money on regular nail appointments which I know will have lots of you rolling your eyes because it no doubt feels like a bit of an indulgent thing. I know this because I used to feel exactly the same way and would look at people who had perfectly manicured nails and … [Read more...]
Five Frugal Things we did this week {30th April 2021}….
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! 👐Even before I start writing this post, I know I'm going to struggle to get to five things because I've not really done too much of anything at all if I'm honest. Let's see how we get on though...1) Miss Frugal and I went charity shop shopping last weekend for the first time in ages and we found some brilliant little bargains which I'll probably … [Read more...]
Where to sell your unwanted furniture….
Wondering where to sell your unwanted furniture? Here's some ideas for you... When I first bought a house, all of my furniture was either a donation from a relative of something bought second hand because it did the job for the right price rather than because it was something I particularly liked. Then I discovered Ikea and other places where I could buy cheap furniture so I started switching out my old hand-me-down pieces for that kind of style on a budget but I discovered shabby chic partway through that phase and started buying old pieces to upcycle. And now, well now I'm all about classic … [Read more...]
Kitchen Cabinet Painting – Before and After….
Today's post is all about my kitchen cabinet painting adventures over the weekend!Our house wasn't even built when we bought it so we were lucky enough to be able to choose the layout of our kitchen and also choose from a (limited) range of doors, handles and worktops. I say limited because our budget meant that we didn't really want to be paying extra for the premium range so we stuck to the basic range which meant that we wouldn't need to pay any extra. There was still enough in the basic range for me to choose something I loved though and after much deliberation (and … [Read more...]
Are Charity Shops too expensive?
What do you think - are charity shops too expensive these days?So, any regular readers here will know that I'm a huge fan of charity shops and love to grab a bargain but even I've noticed that a bargain these days is more expensive than a charity shop bargain used to be. 😟Obviously, the high street shops have been closed for a while now but lots of the big charities (and some of the smaller ones) have online charity shops which I shared a little while ago and at the time, someone sent me a message to say she used to love charity shop shopping but that she felt they were … [Read more...]
