Do You Do Pinterest?

If you have not found Pinterest yet, then you are missing out.  This has been one of the best places that I have been on the internet.  It is so fun and addicting so I need to be careful.  But I love the fact that it allows me to create bulletin boards for any category I want and then pin any item of interest that I find.  Then I have it saved, with a picture so I can go back to it for future reference.  I have found so many new ideas, recipes, fun stuff, tips, and even new friends.  If you haven’t tried it, you should.  Today I did a frugal little project that was so fast and easy.  I made my own cleaning rags.  I had pinned a tutorial on my frugal board and then just changed it to fit with what I already had in the house.  You can see the original tutorial here in case you like what she does. Below you see what I did:

  • cut up some old dish towels
  • put the towels into the Rubbermaid container
  • Added about a cup of water
  • Added a few squirts of natural soap – happened to be a baby soap that I found on sale somewhere
  • Added two or three tablespoons of vinegar
  • let the rags soak it all up and cleaned away

It was oh so easy – less that five minutes – and cleans, oh so good, works much better than any all purpose cleaner I have ever purchased so try it for yourself and why not hop over to Pinterest and follow me there too.

Wednesday’s Wisdom

1 Kings 8:61  Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day. How much do we give? Psalms 96:8-9 “Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name:” (Give Praise and worship) “bring an offering, and come into his courts.” (Give personal wealth) “O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.” (Give practical witness) “ God wants our praise.  The world needs our practical witness of a holy life.  and we need to give our personal wealth.  God does not need our gifts-but we need to give.  The greatest gift we can give is to give our lives to His service. ~The above is from My Morning Manna, vol. 3, p. 226, by Ed Nelson
