This week’s frugal tip:  Don’t go into a craft supply store looking for inspiration!

Don’t do it!!  This is like going grocery shopping when you’re hungry. There are a lot of great ideas and examples on display in most craft stores, but their main goal is to sell you new products and tools, instead of showing you what you can do with what you already have.  They just want your money!!  And, I know, you really want to give it to them, don’t you?  But you can do it!  You can resist!  So instead of going shopping the next time you’re feeling a little low on the mo-jo, hop on the web and check out your favorite blogs or galleries.  Or, better yet, call a buddy and confess your weakness!  It is an addiction, after all, and the first step is admitting it.
