Annette @ A Net in TimeFirst Things First

How does one homeschool and watch one’s pennies at the same time?
I have to admit, I often struggle with this. There is so much I think.. I can do that with the lad or I can do this with the lad or… OOH>>> Look at that new thing?

Erin @ Water on the FloorFrugality is Not an Excuse for Filling Your Home with Clutter

This year we are taking back our home. Filling our home with too many “things” has gone on way too long. All along I was saving these “things” for the sake of being frugal.

Kemi @ Homemaking OrganizedSome Things That Should Be Frugal, But Can End Up Breaking the Bank

Many of these areas my husband and I have taken on through the years in the interest of being frugal. But we’ve also quickly discovered that if you’re not quite sure what you’re doing some of these areas can quickly become not so frugal after all.

Joani @ Simple Living MamaHow to Frugally Build a Child’s Library

My childhood books are some of my most prized possessions. They have been carefully saved to be read to my children.

This can get expensive, but I have figured out a couple of ways to frugally build a child’s library.
