Home
Cleaning
I love Norwex. I don’t use them for everything around my home just yet, but what I love about their company is that their whole goal is to reduce chemicals in our homes.
For the wood surfaces, I use their dusting mitt. Even my oldest will help with the dusting. For all of the other surfaces, I use their microfiber cloth and warm water.
No other chemicals are needed. Their cloths use a micro-silver antibacterial agent that helps remove 99% of bacteria from the surfaces.
Organization
One of my favorite deal sites is Sierra Trading Post. Their selection is huge and their prices are rock-bottom.
We have also purchased several outdoor clothing items from them that are name brand without the name brand price.
When you sign up for their Deal Flyer newsletter, you can get even lower prices on various items throughout their website.
Budgeting
We use the Mint app to manage our finances. You can read the full tutorial on how to use the app here in this post.
Business
Web Hosting
Bluehost is the hosting company I use for my website. They have always been responsive whenever I’ve had a question. I haven’t had any downtime, as of yet. Their prices are super reasonable too. Click the image below to learn more:
Theme
I use the Pretty Chic theme from Pretty Darn Cute Design. Lindsey creates beautiful themes with many different options.
Framework
The Genesis Framework from Studio Press is super easy to use and coded really well. It also makes it extremely easy to change from one theme to the next without losing any customizations. Want to understand more? Check out this post for a great explanation of the Genesis Framework.
