I was contacted recently to do a test drive on Meaningful Beauty’s new Advanced Anti-Aging Skincare System. After celebrating my 50th birthday with you, last summer, it’s probably time for me to face a couple of the tiny lines asserting themselves around my eyes. Holy cow! Were those there before?

Imagine being a thirteen year-old-girl, and in a span of literally only a few months, you gain more than sixty pounds, even though your eating habits and activity level have had no changes.

I recently made each of our granddaughters adorable new “Twirly” Skirts with my new Brother CS6000i sewing machine and I wanted to do something for their hair that would match. I love all the flower hair clippies you see, around; so I decided to try and do something like that. I used fabric scraps left [...]

After two and a half months making our own laundry detergent and loving the results, I’m moving full-steam ahead to find frugal substitutes for the other products we use in the laundry room. While I wouldn’t say we spend an exorbitant amount on dryer sheets, if I were to suddenly be left without the need [...]
First of all, let me say that if you have a picture frame lying around the house, this cute and simple project will likely be less than $2! I spent $5 on a frame, used a few cents-worth of Elmer’s Double-Sided Scrapbooking Tape and added a dry erase marker; so I spent a little under [...]
Guess what? You can create some inexpensive, and yet very personalized gifts, for Christmas. Yes, you can! It’s super simple. Think positive! I just made three adorable pillowcases for our grandkids, in a little over an hour, and THAT included stopping to take pictures and to start some rye bread rising! Here’s all you’ll [...]
If you own a Cricut Craft Cutter, I hope you realize how versatile it really is and the fabulous things you can do with it beyond just designing and cutting beautiful greeting cards. I am making a lot of our Christmas gifts, this year, and my Cricut is an indispensable tool when it comes to [...]
