"The Balcony" by Édouard Manet, 1868-1869 As the world stays home, we would like to opt for a new euphemism for life in quarantine: Nesting. Last week, we dove into the plushy world of retro conversation pits. Today, we're pivoting to the glory of the balconies – which have become the world's inc

It is completely possible to buy a pattern to make a corset for yourself, but if you have non-standard measurements, there is a decent chance that the pattern will require a high amount of alteration anyway. So why not just make a completely custom pattern, fitted exactly to you, with duct tape? I did and it has been awesome!
One of the motifs that regularly appear in Hieronymus Bosch's works are owls. Bosch was probably the owliest artist of the times.

"A thrifty housewife is better than a great income. A good wife and health are a man’s best wealth." ~ Spurgeon Frugal living is not necessarily about living cheaply, but living more creatively! You can have an abundant life on very little. Here are some posts from the past that share this understanding. Some are simple sentiments, others are frugal tips and healthy living on a budget while many are do-it-yourself delights. Perhaps this little collection will inspire you to think differently and more prudently in this new year! First of all, 8 Ways to Combat the No-Spending Blues is a good way to begin this journey. We want to train our minds to think without the word "shopping" attached to it! Should you require further inspiration, you may be interested in learning how I forged my path into frugal living with my mother-in-law as my mentor. This incident was unreal to my "young self". Please visit, "Doth $afely Trust in Her" for this amazingly true story! Ladies, in our daily household duties, we can make a huge impact! Just changing our routine from a dryer to a clothesline can save a pretty penny and provide other benefits at the same time. Visit our "Clothesline Collection" for further inspiration! This is a simple way to start your thrifty lifestyle. In examining the table linen, we share some ideas for finding inexpensive napkins and tablecloths. Cloth products are much more luxurious than paper and you will save mounds of money from making the switch (along with extra savings for using the line). You can even make your own "paper" towels to cut down costs! And here, you will find some frugal inspiration for acquiring bed linens. The idea is to think of refashioning rather than repurchasing. How to make your old and ugly potholders to be nice and new again is one such example (DIY here). Even making your own household cleaning products will help the budget while still giving you that glamorous packaging and delicious scent (that some of us crave). We share some pretty cleaning labels and natural recipes to get you started. This saves not only money but your health (from inhaling all those chemicals in the store bought kind). You can be wonderfully luxurious and make your products according to the seasons. Lavender for spring and summer while the citrus cleaning products are perfect for fall and winter. Both are inexpensive but beautiful! Let us take a trip into the kitchen, shall we? We often feel we can not feed our families healthy food on a small budget. One such way this is possible is by growing a garden. You can afford to eat organic produce this way! You can shop the seasonal farmer's market in your own back yard! You are also giving yourself the blessing of some old fashioned work. Beans are an obvious choice for frugal-friendly meals and they can be very tasty. We share our favorite 14-plus meals to make with pinto beans along with some black bean menu ideas too! This "end of the harvest" soup gives you a variety of ways you can prepare a large batch of soup with all your leftover produce. Hearty and very healthy, it is also quite frugal! Make large batches of this and freeze them in family sized portions for the future. The beauty of bone broth shares how you can nurture health in your home with an inexpensive bag of bones! You can add this golden liquid to your pantry by canning or simply freeze large batches for the future! Either way, healthy does not necessarily mean expensive health food store items! You can also create a prudent pantry using recycled jars and containers {ideas here}. When you attach some pretty pantry labels (we share a free printable here), it is a lovely finishing touch. There is nothing more frugal than preparing your own pantry and eating at home. Visit here for more ideas! Learning new skills and bringing back old ones will also embellish your prudent lifestyle. Canning, fermenting foods, and dehydrating will help to build your pantry (even little projects such as shredding and freezing those "odds and ends" produce will make an impact). Making your own mixes is a wonderful way to keep "convenience food" on a budget. It is all about redistributing your pantry ingredients into jars which create a finished product from the inventory and at a fraction of the cost. One large piece to prudent living lies in the area of resourcefulness. Visit "Embracing Ma's Practical Pioneering Spirit During Lean Times" for a lovely little history lesson and inspiration for "making do"! Being resourceful is challenging and therefore very satisfying. For example, do you have access to a lavender plant or rosemary, or anything else medicinal, culinary or lovely? If so, I encourage you to create with these free gifts from the garden. For instance, here are some wonderful gift-giving ideas and household projects that involve lavender. Recipes are included for a medicinal oil, drawer sachets, lotion bar, carpet deodorizer, bath salts and so forth! There are many fantastic items you can make at home for a fraction of the cost (if not for free)! We just need to be aware of our surroundings. Another example is produce! If you have access to free lemons during the winter, utilize them to the best of your ability! There are so many blessings in a bag of free fruit! Here is a list of wonderful projects you can do and make with lemons! It includes making your own cough syrup, lemon extract, body scrub, seasonings, lemon marmalade, frozen lemonade, lemonade syrup, cleaning products and the list goes on! We can create on very little and this would include some thrifty gift-making! You will also be amazed at the frugal fun you can have in the kitchen with discarded orange peels! Such a variety of pretty projects and presents! You can make decorative potpourri for pennies, seasonings, bath scrubs and powders, mulling spices, handcrafted tea blends, etc., and all from your leftover citrus! So the question is, what do you have access to in your home that you can create with? It is also more economical and very enjoyable to make your own gifts. There is a bit of something you can create for everyone-- whether young or old, child or infant. Working with your own hands and resources will bless the budget as well as others in your life! Prudent living does not mean unpleasant living. You can still have a decorative home. Do you have a desire for cheery vases of fresh flowers to be spread throughout? Does this sound lavish? Picking wildflowers surely makes a table pleasant and it costs nothing. You can also harvest seeds from simple flowers to create a free cutting garden in your own back yard! Or, visit this post for rooting techniques on certain flowers. Frugal can still be fanciful! "There is great satisfaction in making something out of nothing, in restoring some old cast-off to a place of usefulness and beauty, or rescuing some discarded piece of wood, stone or metal from the dump and turning it into an object that has purpose and charm in your home." ~ Edith Schaeffer, The Hidden Art of Homemaking Recycling or "turning trash into treasure" is another aspect of prudent living the pretty way. Think more creatively! For example, these apothecary jars are very easy to make and use items easily found around the home. They can store herbs, laundry room sundries (such as soap, clothespins, etc), kitchen counter items such as coffee, tea and sugar, decorative items from nature (like sea glass, pinecones and such) and dry goods in the bathroom (like cotton ball, quips and bandaids). The idea is to use what you have. Frugal can be fun! Visit here for more do-it-yourself inspiration. In the end, it is all about being content with what we have and using our resources and skills to the fullest potential. "He Praiseth Her ~ The Contented Homemaker" shares how an attitude of gratitude is the best formula for frugal living. If you combine this mentality with a dose of old fashioned labor (see the Blessing$ of Old Fashioned Work ~ Part Three), your family will truly be blessed! Looking for ways to utilize what your land provides (even a city home) will also be very helpful along with this Homemaker's A-Z Index which gives ideas of what to do with what you have. So, here's to a debt-free, frugal but fanciful new year, ladies! More Reading on the Subject: A "Shabby Chic" Frugal Farm Lifestyle Frugal Homemaking Lessons Inspired by the Great Depression What to Make and Do with Fruit Scraps "FRUGALITY AND ECONOMY ARE HOME VIRTUES, without which no household can prosper. Dr. Johnson says: "Frugality may be termed the daughter of Prudence, the sister of Temperance, and the parent of Liberty. He that is extravagant will quickly become poor, and poverty will enforce dependence and invite corruption." The necessity of practising economy should be evident to every one, whether in the possession of an income no more than sufficient for a family's requirements, or of a large fortune, which puts financial adversity out of the question." ~ Mrs. Beeton's Book of Household Management, 1861 For further reading, some blogs that convey this concept (of pretty living the prudent way) that I have come to appreciate are The Bluebirds are Nesting, The Prudent Homemaker and A Tray of Bliss. Happy homemaking! P.S. You can still enjoy your blended coffee drinks when budgeting! Just mix up your own at home using leftover coffee that you freeze in ice-cube trays!
