Welcome to the Fox Visitors

April 1, 2009

I am so thrilled that you have found your way to my journey of Balancing Beauty and Bedlam.
This is where I share my ramblings.
Just one woman trying to balance it all…frugal homemaking, intentionality and the joy/bedlam of five children.

That way, you won’t be a day late when I announce the newest freebies (click here to see some of the examples. Many expire quickly).

I am in the process of updating many features. I am excited that I will be adding many new tutorials on couponing, thrifting, and of course, dressing with a designer wardrobe on a yard sale budget.

To get you started, feel free to browse my archived posts found on the left side of my blog.

8 Allison April 2, 2009 at 3:46 am: Hey! I have been reading your blog for a while and I was excited to see you on Fox 8 tonight! You did a great job! You are an inspiration and encouragement to all of us moms trying to, by God’s grace, manage our families and homes. Also I liked your earrings and necklace that you wore on the interview. Was that one of your “great finds” at Goodwill or a yard sale?
