If you are looking for an inexpensive but creative custom look for your windows here is a great option. We have a wall of windows that I have let go without character for many months now. Since we had renovations done and the colors changed I have not found the right curtains to go on this wall. When I would start shopping for what I had in mind it quickly got very pricey.

How do you keep your bills organized and paid on time? For years, I would just pay them as I would get them in the mail. Which would mean that I drug out my checkbook every few days.

January is the month where so many of us are cleaning out, organizing and getting ready for the year ahead. After we get our rooms looking clean, don't we want them to smell nice too? Now, I know that there are a lot of very inexpensive air fresheners out there that work really well, but why not try to deodorize your home naturally? I bet you have almost all (if not all) of the items you'll need … [Read more...]
Over the last few months we have started switching out our bulbs from the incandescent to energy efficient bulbs. We started making the change this year when I heard about how much money could be saved on our electric bill. Honestly that was my only consideration and I just took the claims on the box as the whole truth and never thought about it again. I am glad I have started making the change … [Read more...]
Hoover Windtunnel Air Bagless Upright Review: We are very hard on our vacuums. Generally they do not last us very long. That may be because we are usually in a pinch when it is time to purchase one and that means we get the cheap ones. These are not made to take on huge messes in a big house daily!
