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...]

This homemade Spicy Arrabbiata Sauce recipe had really upped my meal planning game this year! If you've seen any of my meal plans on Meal Planning Made Easy for the last couple of weeks then you'll probably have seen that a new regular on our meal plan is Prawn Pasta with a spicy arrabbiata sauce. It's a bit of a twist on my homemade tomato sauce recipe which I've been making in bulk for years now as it's so versatile and brilliant to batch cook and freeze so you always have some in the freezer.

I'm sharing my homemade DIY exfoliating salt scrub with you today and I think you're going to love it! I'm all about a good homemade sugar scrub usually but when I went to make a little batch over the weekend, I realised I didn't have much sugar in the house and I had to make a difficult choice between using the small amount of sugar we had in to make fruit cobbler or to make a sugar scrub. It was a hard decision to make as I do love a good sugar scrub but in the end, the cake won the battle and I ended up using the sugar for that. All wasn't lost though … [Read more...]

These super cute homemade baby milestone cards are the cutest way to record your baby's first year!I don't remember baby milestone cards being a thing when my two were little but I'm pretty sure if they had been then I would have been all over them as I would have loved to have recorded their little milestones! I don't even think I did a proper baby book although I do have books that I made them both when they were toddlers that are filled with little funny stories about them which they love to look through every now and again.I think the cards are such a good idea but … [Read more...]

I've been making homemade toilet bombs for years now and seeing as I've just made a batch today, I thought I'd share how I make them.I love homemade cleaning recipes and I think these little toilet bombs were actually my first little DIY cleaning project. They worked really well so I often make a batch to keep in the main bathroom - especially since I discovered that Wilko do boxes of citric acid and baking soda quite cheaply! I used to buy Citric Acid from Amazon which usually cost more than double the boxes I can get in Wilko.There's a couple of reasons I like these … [Read more...]
