Make It Yourself:
Most DIY concentrates on home repairs, but think of what was done in
years past, making it yourself not only saves money, but give you more
control over what products you use in your daily life
Make it yourself - when in high school many years ago, I wanted
designer clothes. You may remember the late 70's and early 80's years
of Dallas where everyone dressed up. I was able to achieve these same
designer styles by sewing my own clothes with designer patterns and
shopping for sales. This skill also came in very handy years later when
I was an Army wife and needed a wardrobe of formal dresses. I was able
to fit this need within my budget.
Think of the skills you have (or would like to have). These skills can
be learned or further enhanced through resources available to us on the
internet. We don't have to rely on the skills our parents had, we can
learn what we can from them and then reach out to discover other skills
we may enjoy having. The possibilities are endless.
