It’s taken a few weeks but here it is, the summary of our No Spend Month. I want to back this post up a bit and give you some insight to our financial ways. We do not have any debt besides our vehicle and mortgage although thanks to our tax return, we payed off […]
No Spend February Project List
Winter is really pounding us this year which shouldn’t be a surprise as I live in the mid-west. So what better time to get some projects for the home knocked out then during No Spend February? These are those annoying, half done projects that I don’t really like doing. I thought I’d keep a list […]
No Spend February, half way done!
Yes, it’s only half way because we really didn’t start until the hubby’s first paycheck in February so we are going into March with this, 4 weeks, two paychecks, close enough to a month. Although we were poor the first week of February anyways so let’s say 5 weeks of no spend. This […]
Favorite Gray Paint Colors in Our Home
So in case you haven’t noticed, I have an obsession with gray walls in my home. I thought I’d share with you today what gray colors I use in my home. One of the reasons I love the gray is that it can be a barely there color on the wall and it goes […]

Week one of No Spend February is done! It was tough as we had a Superbowl party on Sunday that we needed to provide food for and a dog that had to go to the vet for a tumor removal which was unexpected. The Superbowl party we had already budgeted for so that wasn’t too […]
Adding bling to the back of the bookshelf

No Spend February 2014
The smack is getting laid down, the belt is getting tightened and sadly I won’t be at Target this month, that’s right friends, we are going on a spending fast. Don’t ask us to do anything fun in the month of February unless it’s free or you want to pay for us. :p […]
Black Interior Doors
The other day when I looked at my powder room door and so how gross, dirty and blah it looked, I grabbed my paint brush, some black ACE Cabinet, Door & Trim paint and decided I’d had enough. I already have a few black doors in our home, the french doors and also the insides […]
Chalkboard Subway Tile Backsplash & My Kitchen
Don’t you love when inspiration hits? It’s a drop everything, I need to do this now kind of thing for me so when I saw Carmel’s Chalkboard Brick Fireplace Makeover on Monday, I was hit hard with inspiration! Which reminded me of The Nester’s chalkboard fireplace that I have always loved. Then I did a quick […]
