Couponing!

I love a good deal and I love my money even more! I check http://freebies2deals.com/ every single day to see what kind of deals I can get that day. Now I can learn even more! Check out this amazing book!


I love that you don't have to read straight through. The first night I got my book I didn't want to go through all the coupon info so when I finished a chapter I chose my next "money saving adventure" and skipped to a later chapter about the best months to buy certain things. I'm excited to keep reading and highly recommend this book to anyone that loves saving money.

Diaper Baby Carriage

We have a gal at work that is expecting a baby girl so we threw her a shower! I wanted to try a few things I found on Pinterest and gave it a shot. I started out just wanting to make the diaper babies, but the smallest diaper pack I could buy had 50 diapers. I only needed 6 so I went on to the baby carriage! This took a lot of different youtube videos and some improvising, but after a few late nights and multiple episodes of Call The Midwife it all came together. I was so excited!

I used this tutorial for the diaper babies http://phar-ma.com/diaper-babiesthe-details/ and this is one of the youtube videos I watched for the carriage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0J9bCtSBqaE 

I used a rubberband to hold the rolled up diapers together and then hot glued them to the shoe box. I really wanted to diapers to be reusable, but tape just didn't hold up. This is purely for looks! Enjoy!
