finished pin and magnets
Paper Spool Shaped Magnets and PinsI got a free image on Pinterest of several shapes of thread spools. I thought it would be a cool idea to use up some old trim I found for .50 a box.

Re-purposed Dress - Finished dress made from a blouse and a skirt.
Re-purposed DressI had a special occasion coming up and wanted a new dress. Budget was quite tight so I decided to make my own from clothes I already had. I had 2 items that I had purchased for only a couple bucks from a thrift shop. I decided to cut them up and make them into something new.

finished slip
Making a Slip From An Old NightgownI needed a really long slip for a maxi-dress. Two problems, I was out of $, and I couldn't find a long one at the store anyways. Then I remembered the old nightgown I had purchased from a thrift-shop for only a couple of dollars. I rarely wear it, so I decided I could make my own slip.

decorated jar of detergent
Liquid Dishwasher DetergentIf you prefer liquid detergent for your dishwasher, then this is for you! This is super inexpensive and easy to make. No more harsh chemicals, no more suds bubbles when you pour water into your clean cups. Cheaper and healthier, sounds good to me!

Spray bottle filled and decorated.
Lavender Under-Arm SprayDid you know that sweat doesn't stink? Odors come because old sweat forms a breeding ground for bacteria. To avoid odors, you just have to keep your armpits clean! Use this between showers and after exertion. Shake the bottle before each use and pat dry afterwards.

cubes drying
Dishwasher CubesI decided to make my own dishwasher detergent cubes because they are cheaper and healthier. Have you read some of the ingredients in the store bought kind? That residue lingers on your dishes and you are ingesting trace amounts every day. These are also easy to make and require common ingredients.

bottle of dish soap with roses in front
Rosemary Dish SoapI am trying to eliminate unwanted toxins and chemicals from our home. I decided to begin with products that we use and breathe in on a daily basis and go from there. Since dishes are being washed 24-7 by yours truly, it seemed like a logical thing to tackle next. Plus I was all out, I needed it.

Boy's HaircutWe save so much money every month! About 11 years ago I decided to start cutting my family's hair. I'm so glad I did. I am by no means a professional hairdresser, but you don't have to be. It is quite easy, it just takes a bit of practice.

completed project wall hanging
Wall Hanging From Old Screen DoorI have a very large wall space in my kitchen which is hard to decorate, because of the size and the placement of other things in my kitchen, such as doors, light switches, etc. I have displayed scattered baskets for many years, but decided I needed a change.
