With its winning combination of practical information, style tips, step-by-step projects, colour photographs and cartoon-style artwork, this book provides all you need to know to make the most of your home without breaking the bank. So, whether you just want to live well on a budget or are preparing to downsize to a simpler existence, see how a thrifty approach can help to save not only money, but time, energy, and your sanity.
