Welcome to Tip Junkie
Hi, I’m Laurie {aka the Tip Junkie} and 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!
Crafty 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.
Where to get started:

P.S. Be sure to grab a copy of my free eBook: Memories that Endure are Moments that Matter with a bonus gift of Girls Night Out printables.

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.

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.
Laurie
Yes! She is Arian from http://www.picturetoportrait.com/ {Picture to Portrait}. She’s completely lovely.
I have something for you on my blog, & just wanted to let you know- because I get so much out of your blog!:

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!
Laurie
That’s a great suggestion. I will be sure to add that feature in the new overhaul of the Giveaway Directory.
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?
Laurie
Sylvia – Send me over the code you are using and I’ll be happy to take a look at it for you. {{wink}} laurie at tip junkie dot com {no spaces}
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
Laurie I just read your intro in the book and loved it! Can’t wait to read more! As a (constantly) recovering perfectionist I’m all about embracing the quirks that make our families so much fun!
Thanks again!
Amy
Laurie do you happen to know a good supply store for Homecoming Mums in Dallas or Tarrant county?

That’s well known that cash can make people free. But what to do if somebody doesn’t have money? The one way only is to get the home loans or secured loan.
Thank you so much for all of your fabulous advice! I LOVE this site!!

All people deserve wealthy life time and credit loans or consolidation loan would make it much better. Because people’s freedom is based on money state.
I love your crafty gift ideas for under $10, totally awesome.
A lot of specialists state that credit loans help people to live their own way, just because they can feel free to buy needed stuff. Furthermore, various banks present credit loan for all people.
Love your blog! Thanks for all the great ideas.

I’m trying to read the FAQ section but it keeps redirecting me to the home page. This makes me sad.
