Watermelon Sugar Lip Scrub

I don’t know why, but I’ve been bothered with dry lips recently. Maybe its from pool chlorine, or just the hot weather. But really, I’ve had nearly winter level dry lips the past few weeks! So I’ve upped my lip care regimen to make sure I’m keeping my lips moisturized with lip scrubs and lip balms, and its really been helping! But I felt like I wanted a more summery lip scrub the other day. So I created this fun Watermelon Sugar Lip Scrub! #beauty #diy #lipScrub

11 Laundry Room Organization Ideas

I don’t have a laundry room per se. My “laundry room” is in my garage. It’s more of a laundry area. We recently spruced up that area and I was looking at some cute laundry rooms for inspiration, so I thought I’d share a few laundry room organization ideas with you! #organizing #organization #organize

Sprinkle Pudding Pops

You all know that I love making my own homemade ice cream and ice pops. And actually the process behind either type of frosty treat is very simple! But sometimes I’m just having a lazy summer day, and don’t feel like even bothering with those simple treats. But rather than take the kids out for ice cream (which is strangely enough becoming more and more pricey every summer), I like to make these super-simple Sprinkle Pudding Pops! Seriously, you only need 5 minutes for these! #dessert #recipe #popsicle

I saw a “Porch Rules” wooden sign at Hobby Lobby that I thought was so cute! But I didn’t really need anything that big. So I made myself a printable and thought I’d share it with you. Free home decor printables are a great way to decorate your home (and porch) on a budget! #freePrintable #decor #porch

Delicious Mini Pumpkin Bread S’more Trifle

We love pumpkin treats all year long not just in the fall. As a matter of fact I just made pumpkin pie last week! It’s my husband’s favorite pie. I buy cans of pumpkin when they’re dirt cheap after the holidays (and I usually grow a few pumpkins every year that I cook). So I always have plenty of canned pumpkin on hand. Here’s a tasty take on a summer time campfire treat that uses pumpkin! Pumpkin Bread S’more Trifle! #recipe #dessert #pumpkin

Blueberry Lemon Sugar Scrub

I love all things blue! I actually styled our front porch with an aqua color scheme, I love it so much. It’s just so calming and pretty. I also love blueberries, but more because they taste so good, though being blue is a plus! I had accidentally squished a few of the blueberries I was snacking on the other day, and was reminded that their juice has a very strong color. I wondered if that color could hold up enough to dye something like a sugar scrub, and I wasn’t disappointed! Here’s how to make a naturally colored aqua Blueberry Lemon Sugar Scrub! #beauty #diy #sugarScrub

Free Printable Kitchen Binder

Organization is very important, especially if you’re trying to live frugally! It’s critically important in the kitchen, where so much time and money is invested. We spend a lot of time organizing our kitchens with bins, baskets, jars, and labels, but we often forget one of the most important kitchen organizing tools – the kitchen binder! I find binders very helpful in organizing different aspects of my life. A kitchen binder will help you keep your meal plans, recipes, shopping lists etc all in one place. To help you fill in your very own kitchen binder, free printable kitchen binder pages are included at the end of this post! #printable #organization #menuPlan

Banana Bread Parfaits + Homemade Banana Bread Recipe

Whenever we have too many ripe bananas, I bake banana bread! I love it because it tastes delicious, is a frugal way to keep bananas from going to waste, and because I don’t have to add a lot of sugar (thanks to the sweet ripe/over-ripe bananas). The other day, I decided to take my frugal baking one step further and turn my homemade banana bread into some delicious parfaits. Here’s how to make your own Banana Bread Parfaits, plus I’m going to share my Homemade Banana Bread Recipe! #recipe #dessert #homemade
