Welcome to Tip Junkie

About Tip Junkie
Every day you’ll be inspired with creative projects, craft DIY ideas, and homemade tutorials. From home decor, entertaining, birthday parties, gift ideas, giveaways, Mom-preneur products, and more!
Craft DIY Ideas, Creative Homemade Tutorials, and Tips
I’m all about the “little guy” or girl in this case. {{wink}} I want to promote women who normally wouldn’t have the opportunity. I want to tell the world about woman-owned products who don’t know how to market them on their own. I want to give each woman an opportunity to be featured, to share their voice, be heard, and validated.

Laurie…you’re beautiful, amazing, talented, selfless…all rolled up into one! I’m so impressed at your efforts to help promote ideas and products that help us ‘become’ and ‘be’ better women. So Thank You! My girlfriend met you at blogapalooza…I was at WC, and a little jealous I didn’t get to meet ‘THE’ tip junkie! Thank you for your dedication.
I love your blog (TipJunkie) and your personal one. I have only just begun blogging, so as soon as I am up and running more smoothly I will have some things to send your way.

I’ve looked at your blog here several times, usually upon suggestions from friends, and didn’t realize until today that I knew you! How silly! Glad to see you are doing well. Thanks for all your hard work on this site and for all the fun items shown here!
love your blog. I’ve added your button to mine. blessings!
Laurie, I hope your back is feeling better and is healing nicely.
Do you have a button for the Shopathon for my blog? I still have the holiday one there. :)
Thanks, and take care!

Hello!
Thank you.I am Turkish.I following your blog.Very much and fascinating.I learning English.
Good day.
I have a question. I thought I saw it on your blog as a button, but I can’t find it now. I’m looking for a person who paints your favorite pictures/photographs. Do you have any idea? Thanks for your time.
Hi! Mommie Daze Virtual Baby Shower has begun and boy are we having fun! I’d love to announce the giveaway in your directory, but am stumped as how to go about doing so. I hope to hear from you soon.

I love the idea of sharing tips. Also the term “Executive Homemaker” is a gem. I am adding this to my blogroll. I mean really, who doesn’t love tips?
I love your site. The only thing I wish was different was being able to tell if a giveaway was open to canadians or not. Its time consuming to click each one and go to the blog and read all through to find out . I love this blog but that would make me visit here more often for sure.
Thank you! :)
Hi ~ Well, I came upon your site just before your Spring-Fling-Giveaway. When I entered on April 13, 2010, at 4:39 am, I told you a little of where I am “coming from”. I note date and time so anyone interested can go back and read, rather than me re-writing things I have already said. Anyway, since I feel like a dinosaur-just-walked-out-of-the-woods trying to adjust to civilization, any suggestions, help, or tips that you can send my way would be greatly appreciated. As of this moment all I have is a goal (of sorts). To have a blog, page, site or ?, where I can be of help to crafters all over. I have extensive knowledge, experience, resources and supplies that I am willing to share where-ever needed, and where they will serve the best use. I am just not sure how to achieve this ambition. For a crafty old lady, I feel like a fool stumbling in the dark. And, I sure would welcome anyone who could shed a little light on things for me.
OK, enough said for now. Until the next time that one of you “out there” comes across my path, I wish you all…a drop of good fortune, a touch of creativity and the blessing of a clear path.
I have been looking at your pages a little closer and wow! I love the comments that others have left for you. It really makes a statement about who you are and what your purpose is. I have tried to add buttons to my blog but they are not showing up all the time. How do you do that? I am learning a little everyday but often get frustrated. I want your button to show up everyday. Any suggestions?
Today is my birthday and by coincidence I received your Moments That Matter ebook and I had to share with you how life affirming it was for me! I too have boys and am a girly girl and you hit on so many key points for me. It’s all about empowering ourselves and enjoying the moment isn’t it? Thank you, Laurie. Your wisdom was a wonderful gift waiting for me in my in box today! :) xoxo
