This is brilliant, thanks so much. I had no idea what I was going to do this year & was crying on my husband this weekend! I’m going to attempt a lot of the things on here & I’m sure people will appreciate the effort I’ve gone to.

Thanks again, I think you just saved my sanity!

I have four thrifty ideas under my belt, so I think I’m on target to post each day this week. I’m challenging myself to be a decent blogger at least for one week! Hopefully my brain won’t be totally zapped from work this week…I still need to come up with a fifth idea! I can’t wait to check out your links…

The link up is a great idea- I will have to put my thinking cap on and see what I can come up with.

I love the tea cup candles, I have always wondered about making them in the past… I feel a trip to the local Hobby store coming on today!

Wow, I love these ideas!! Brilliant. I will definitely do the tea cup candles.

I did lime chutney a couple of years ago, was a massive hit!
