    Acrylic nails, I also make baby Tutu's and headbands.

    Fun fact: I am actually pretty good at making tutu's.

    We have more and more in common these days :)

    Speaking of mending clothing, I need to relearn how to do that. I'm getting tired of buying new socks all the time and I have the same hole in the knee of 6 pairs of jeans.

    I cook a lot at home from scratch, I can fruit, jams, and salsa, I make my own laundry soap ( costs about 25 bucks and lasts around 9 months). I sew baby gifts, quilts, and make my own purses.

    I do the canning and scratch cooking as well, but I simply cannot bring myself to make my own laundry soap. I know how, but just not willing to do it. :P

    You really should. It honestly takes about 15 - 20 minutes. So, worth the time and money. I run it through my food processor so the grated soap is finer so it takes me a little longer but still worth the time and money.

    I cut my own hair, no point in paying $15 to $20 for someone to buzz my hair off!

    I cut my family's hair. Highlights for my daughter. It has saved us a ton of money over the years!

    * I used to be a licensed hairstylist, so I know what I'm doing.* :wink:

    make my own laundry soap

    I tried that, I have psoriasis and the recipes I tried online disagreed with my skin. I'm really finicky on my soaps.

    I do make body soap for in the shower though!!

    I'm only spending $20 or so every 2-3 months, so the money saved just isn't worth it overall. If I had a BUNCH of laundry to do then I would agree with you.

    Everything; plumping, fixtures, electrical; brake pads last week, carpentry on a chimney chase two months ago, structural work on the joists before that, ran natural gas pipes for a conversion . . . anything that I am physically and mentally capable of, and I can make the time to do, I will do.

    I always do my own eyebrows! Not worth $10 to get my skin ripped off lol

    How do you manage?
  • Cook from scratch. Eg make my own tortillas - a fraction of the cost! Make my own chicken stock after roasting a chicken; make my own rye sourdough bread (badly at the moment - just learning). And exercise - I don't bother with the gym; just do my own programme at home and seek incidental exercise opportunities.
