I started wondering just how many things I make to avoid spending gobs of money at the store. I mean, I would rather spend my hard-earned money on things I *want* not on things I need. Okay- yes, I spend it on things needed, too- like gas, and electricity and food. But only because they are needed.
What if you could make something at home instead of buying the higher-priced item from the store?
Wouldn't you then free-up some cash for other things? With that in mind, I decided to write down everything I make at home. Some items may seem cost prohibitive at first, but once the initial ingredients are bought, you get a lot of bang for your buck and your dollar stretches a lot further.
Without further ado- here is a list of things I make at home. And if I posted about it, I'll try to include the link:
1. Laundry Soap
2. Fabric Softener
3. Ranch Power
4. Italian Powder
5. Bath Soap 'Crayons'
6. Liquid Hand Soap
7. Mosquito Repellent

10. Pancake/Baking mix
11. Jam/Jelly

16. Vanilla Syrup

18. Vanilla Sugar
19. Tomato Paste
20. Baked Beans
21. Lime Syrup

28. Pine Cone Color Fire Starters
29. Craft Clay
30. Cleaning Wipes

34. Tomato/Spaghetti Sauce
35. Dishwasher Soap

I can't think of any more at the moment. And when I get another free minute, I'll try to add the links to posted tutorials that I may have missed.
So- is there anything you make and can I have your recipe for it? :)
