Quicky Easter Decoration
If you have these:
You can make this!!!!
All you need is a soap dispenser and gel clings. Peel off the label on the soap and add your cling! So easy it is scary!!! Also the vinyl ones work just as well. If you want, you can leave the back label on, I just got pull happy and took it all off.
Hopefully I will have another project for you soon!!!!

Hurry up Spring!!!!!!
Or should I say hurry up warm weather!!!
I just came up with 2 more (want to do) projects and this cold wet weather is killing me!!!!
I actually considered taking over the unfinsihed playroom but then again you never know when a grandbaby is gonna show up and want to play. And being the wonderful mawmaw I am, I just can't say no.
ACTUALLY!!!!! Several will be here this weekend but I might get by with next week. Hmmmmmm, need to think about that....
The first project I have what I need. The second one, I need to shopping out on the family farm to get things. My parents are gonna start hiding when I come out there...lol
I believe this summer as I yard sale I will gather winter projects so I am not sitting idle for half a year. It is driving me crazy!!!

A Review!!
Today I want to do something a little different.
I want to share with you one of my FAVORITE products!!
I just love Resolve Spray and Wash!! With 13 grandchildren, I have used this product to get all sorts of stains out of their clothes. From blood to chocolate. My better half works in a garage and can ruin a t shirt in one day. I have been lucky enough to make them last longer and look nicer with this product.
DISCLAIMER: I am not getting paid for this review. No one asked me to do it, just did it on my own. This is just my two cents about something I use in my own home.

Is It Really Frugal?
I love to blog hop! You can find me all over the place in blog land as soon as the house work is finished.
A lot of the ones I read are ways to be very frugal and saving money. Some of the ideas are good while I really question the frugalness of others.
Examples: May your fabric softener sheets....I just use vinegar in an old Downy Ball and tennis balls in the dryer. ANNNNND I very seldom use the dyer anyways. I hang up everything.
See what I mean? I don't have to my fabric softener at all!
I make my own bread. Winter I use a bread machine, summer ?I like to make it and put it out in the hot sun (covered of course) to rise on its own. This way I don't have loaves stocked in the freezer.
I can buy a .95 cent bottle of body wash cheaper then I can make it at home. Even almost free if I have a coupon.
I NEVER buy coupons. I can get them free and I think paying for them kind of defeats the purpose of saving money.
What do you think?

Pictures!!!!!







So can not wait for warm weather. I also have a metal bird cage on a stand in the attic that use to belong from another great grandmother. Just waited on a time not to have crawling little ones in the house because it is top heavy.
Sorry about the dark pictures. Still learning how the camera works!
Have a wonderful day everyone!!!!!
