My daybed mattresses were previously used by a young girl, in her growing up bedroom, then stored by the parents for years. The toy ice cream table and chairs from my Mom’s childhood have an iron frame, which I stripped and spray painted. It had way too many coats of paint on it to ever be pretty again otherwise.

The idea for the Cardboard Christmas Tree using recycled packing boxes was in the latest issue of Disney Family Fun Magazine and it caught my eye because of the pileup in my garage.

If I take out the trash and recycling when it’s full, it won’t overflow. There are actually three paint cans on my counters in this photo. The post Messy, clean, messy, clean = NORMAL appeared first on The Frugal Girl. If I wash the dirty laundry regularly, it will never become overwhelming.
