25 Must Know Secrets for a Successful Indoor Gardening



Indoor gardening has been around for a long time, but as more people concern themselves with eating healthier and fresher foods, and more of those people live in homes without the yard space necessary for a traditional garden, indoor gardening has become extremely popular. After all, who wouldn’t want fresh vegetables and herbs all year round without spending a fortune at the grocery store? Who wouldn’t want to be able to ensure their family is eating produce grown in good soil, unaffected by harsh chemical pesticides?

Anyone can grow their own vegetables and herbs without a traditional garden, and most crops which can be grown outside can also be grown inside. Indoor gardening is great not only for those with little to no yard space, but it’s fabulous for beginners. It doesn’t take a lot of money or time and allows beginner gardeners to start slowly and grow into larger gardens.

Find out what you need to know to create and maintain an indoor garden:

  • How to select what plants to grow
  • What kind of containers to use
  • Choosing the right spot in your home for your garden
  • Lighting, Watering, Fertilizing, and much more!

I Needed A New Rug! Frugal DIY!

 I was needing a new rug of some sort to go between the living room and kitchen. Nothing fancy, just something to cover where someone had spilled some coffee.

I was at the Dollar Tree and noticed some little throw rugs and grabbed 3 of them that matched. Thinking I would just lay them there.

But, when I got home I had a light bulb go up above my head. Get out the Sewing Basket and sew them together and have a bigger and more solid rug.


I turned on an episode of Haven on Netflix and got to sewing the longer sides together. Leaving the fringe on the outside. Just a quick stitch by hand and now have a new rug that fits perfect for what I wanted it for. Plus, it only cost 3 dollars!!!

Frugal home design at its best!! You could easily do this with as many rugs as you want.
