Make your House a Home - Frugal Ideas :: 31 Days of Homemaking
Today I want to share frugal ideas I've found that can help us add just the little extra touch to your home. I love adding things to our home without spending much if any money. :)
Put fabric over a metal cookie sheet for a pretty magnetic board.
Mod-Podge black and white photos onto your family initial.
Cloth paper towels can save a lot of money
This is a really cute way to keep an extra roll of toilet paper handy. These can be made to match your bathroom decor exactly. :)
Bookshelves with one turned sideways with chalkboard paint on one side. Perfect for notes or teaching your children.
I love pictures and the family initial hung in the house.
Use bookshelves to make a bed header.
Burlap and stencils to make frugal and pretty placemats.
Stain and remove a few boards from a pallet for a neat shelf.
Canvas with scrapbook paper and then painted wooden letter to make a neat bedroom or any room decor.
Another idea for a pallet shelf
Use stencils to pretty up an old side table.
Old window with shelf
Make a heart out of picture frames for above a bed.
Use spice racks to hold the children's books up off the floor.
All these ideas I pulled from Pinterest. Pinterest is a neat place to go for ideas on just about anything. You can go to my pinterest account to view more ideas I love.
Tomorrow is the last day for my 31 Days of Homemaking series, this has been so much fun! Be sure to enter the giveaway that ends tomorrow along with the series.

Worrying & Trust :: 31 Days of Homemaking
It will never benefit your homemaking to worry what the future will be like. I know I've worried about many things and the Lord has always carried us through. Now is my time to raise my children and manage my home as well as I can, without worry. Today I stop worrying and start trusting in my Lord.

The Word of God In Our Home(making) :: 31 Days of Homemaking
In the Bible we are commanded to teach our children the word of God as parents, but that's hard to do when we ourselves aren't being filled with His word. Here are the 3 ways I fill myself with God's word daily.
Read your Bible Daily
Quiet time can be hard to find when you've got little ones. Especially when your little ones wake up nice and early. :) Try reading a small piece of scripture at every meal for your to think about throughout the day.
Listen to Audio Bible
You can listen to audio bible while you are washing dishes and rocking babies. No book for a baby to grab at and try to take pages from. : ) I listen to audio bible quite often.
Home Decor
You can often find home decor with scripture passages and other encouraging messages at thrift stores, flea markets but my favorite place is Hobby Lobby. Home Decor speaks a lot about what our visions and family values are.
