Not long ago, I ran a blog called One Cheap B*tch. While the name raised quite a few eyebrows back then, the concept was simple: how to save more of your hard-earned money by creating your own home decor. If you're like me, you're probably feeling the crush of the economy and wondering how you can save this holiday season. I'm no financial expert. I'm just a regular mom, but here's how I'm saving a...

I do a little each day so it doesn't feel so overwhelming.As you can probably tell from my blogging absence, we have a lot going on over here.

Hopefully, it will hold me over until my favorite decorating time of year...Jeanine ...
