Faux Porcelain Vases

Latest craft project... Faux Porcelain Vases!


The supplies: 3 cheap glass bottles from Hobby Lobby, puff paint, and white spray paint.


Designs created on the glass bottles with the puff paint.


After the puff paint has dried, use white spray paint to create the porcelain look.

YAY CRAFTS!

Day 18 of 23 Days of Frugal Living: How to Stick to a Budget
 1. Write it down!
Use a spreadsheet to include spendings like:
  • Rent/Mortgage Repayments
  • Utilities (Electricity, gas, water)
  • Phone, Mobile and Internet Expenses
  • Insurance (House, Health, Life, Car etc)
  • Car, Transportation and Tickets
  • Food and Clothing
  • Medical
  • Entertainment
  • Other (debts, gym memberships etc)
  • SAVINGS!!!!
2. Work towards a goal!
Reward yourself with a vacation or item of choice after saving over a period of time.
3. Treat yourself every so often!
To celebrate not slipping up after a period of time reward yourself with a small treat.
4. Make your budget workable!
Don't be so strict on your budget that it is impossible to be successful.

Started Dave Ramsey's Money Makeover today! Wowzers... got some work to do!

Little bit of happiness: Mark another thing off the bucket list! Made my postcard to send to PostSecret!
Daily quote: Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
Cheers to Happiness,
