Have you heard the saying that you have champagne taste on a beer budget? That pretty much describes me, except much of my adult life as a single mother raising two daughters, I had more of a water budget.
You are now probably scratching your collective heads and asking yourselves what is this all about. No, this is not just more of my blather. I woke up this morning deciding that I need to start sharing some of this immense knowledge before my brain turns into mush.
It's time for me to start sharing what I have spent my adult life learning. I have decided to write a series on how to shop thrift stores and yard sales, how to bid at local online auctions, where to find out what things are worth, and if you are like me how to set up an Etsy vintage shop to keep you off of hoarders.
I will also share my thrifty home decor. Some of it I may not remember what I paid for it, but most of it has been free or pennies on the dollar.
When you have lots of money you can buy whatever you want, hire a decorator, pay a cleaning lady, and turn your home into one of those Instagram perfect places that gets you a trillion followers.
Most of us live in the real world where kids and pets make messes (in my case I now make the mess), where we can't spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on new furniture and decor items, or where we just love a bargain.
If this sounds like you then stay tuned for my series. It will probably be a bumpy ride because I actually may start blathering, but I hope it will be a let's put the top down on the convertible, Thelma and Louise fun kind of ride (no driving off a cliff though).
You can also find me on Amazon here, Like To Know It here, and Etsy here.
