After my daughter was born in 2006, I started the typical family blog to share our life with our families on the East Coast. At the same time I also discovered the world of couponing and frugal living blogs. I was hooked! I started to share my experiences on my blog. As I started working my way in to a frugal lifestyle, I discovered that the best way to really save money was to make anything and everything I could myself. I also realized that not only are homemade items cheaper, but they are also healthier, cleaner and better for my family and the environment.
In 2011, I started homeschooling my kids, adding yet another dimension to our “homemade” lifestyle.
I am hoping that this blog will provide you with just a few ideas and a lot of inspiration to add more “homemade” to your life.
