Creative Living is 3 years old today - in here for musings on the past 3 years -what you like and don't like, what you would like to see on the forum, suggestions for the future etc
A lot of us here are very interested in WW2 history - how they lived at home during those uncertain times; what they ate;what they wore;how they kept themselves amused; how did they cope?
There was a lot of very sage advice back then, and we would do well to follow a lot of it these days - so, why don't we have a go? Ofcourse we are not under the enormous pressures and dangers they were in, but I'm sure we can all benefit from trying out the frugal lessons and make do and mend. Feel free to dip in and out as you choose - you don't have to do it all.
In here will go the How to....... articles, formerly Masterclasses. The idea is for someone with knowledge and experience to lead interested others in trying out new things - cooking, crafts, etc. Plenty of room for comments, pictures from everyone. Please keep all the related threads under one heading, though, to make it easier to find in the future.
........maks a muckle; look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves.......whatever your favourite expression for it, we all like to be frugal for a variety of reasons. This is where aliwood holds court, so over to her........
Poetry deserves its very own Forum here at The Creative Mind, so post your favourites here - ones that strike a chord, mean something special to you, make you laugh, make you cry, your own poetry, whatever.
In here to spend your Dunds, everyone! Aliwood is in charge here, so follow the guidelines and take part in a great online grassroots community initiative!
Beat the big boys at their own game! Here is the Creative Living seed bank; if you have any spare seed, home saved, or spare from old/heritage/rare/heirloom/unusual varieties, get in contact with Luath who will take care of them in the CL seedbank, for sharing out to those who would like them, to grow on and save seed of their own for future distribution.
