Hi! I’m Michelle
My journey of learning to live on a budget has been filled with ups and downs, and starts and stops. I believe that it’s never too late in life to learn something new, or to change old habits.
I love to share what is working to help me budget and save money, along with recipes and gardening and homemaking tips…and thrift store and DIY adventures, too!
In today’s world, we are bombarded with images of “perfect” homes. My hope with this website is to encourage women to create their perfect home within their budget.
