My Frugal Mommy Life
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 22 มี.ค. 2021
Hi, I’m Jessica and I’m a frugal mom. I was frugal even before I became a mom, but now I’m even more careful with my cash with so many kid things to buy. On this channel I share my journey as a mom but also how we manage to buy some of the nicest kid gadgets, toys, clothing and experiences without breaking the bank. Would you like to know how we got paid to use a Snoo bassinet or how we spent $0 on the TWO Uppababy strollers in our garage? Would you like to see the Montessori-style activities we do at our house? I hope you’ll watch my channel and subscribe!

Nice work!
Thank you and thank you for watching!
hi where is this silver wear caddy from ? thanks !
Thanks for asking and for watching. You probably heard me say I made it, but I just used a wood puzzle piece box and then used wood glue to put cut-down paint sticks as dividers. Then I added the decals. Links to those in the video description :) Thanks again for watching!
Thank you! This was so helpful!
@@NicholasKing-d9i I’m so glad! Thanks for the kind comment and happy holidays!
Thank you! I’m so grateful that you put this video out there. I just took mine apart, and several of the O-rings were broken.
@@brodyharrison6029 thanks so much for watching! Links to what you need to buy to replace in the description. Good luck. You can do it!
Don’t unscrew the screws! It’s not worth it.
Totally fair! Appreciate the comment!
This is a sorta odd comparison but this Montessori kitchen gray water design is similar to yours and goes to a larger container. Also thought a big laundry detergent jug with the spout on one side and the cap on the top front may work to hold more gray water and allow you to outlet it as needed more easily. Like the five gallon All free and clear laundry detergent container from Costco. I think it’s actually maybe 2 gallons but it has a spout and would hold more than one gallon. Just love these little projects you do.
came here for nostalgia because i had both of the m&d ones here - absolutely loved them both, sooo many good memories with especially the house. the castle was fun too - we often used it as a maximum security prison lol.
Thanks so much for watching and for commenting with your memories!
Hi! As a mom who once didn’t know, I thought I’d pass it along too. Dreft has ingredients harmful to developmental and fertility. I use Attitude and Miss Mouths which are both free of harmful chemicals ❤ I can send you the link of the resource I used. But I appreciate so much the video!!
What color did you use I can’t find the link
how did you get the door to lock?
Thanks for watching! I linked them in the description but you can find them here: Magnetic locks: amzn.to/47052C9
Can you show how to replace the other o rings (orange ones in your video)? I’m not able to get the wheel part out of the carriage.
I thought I had seen them just lift out, I’m sorry. I’d also try pressing down first and then lifting if you haven’t tried that already. You may need to try a different video 😢
@@myfrugalmommylife thanks for the reply! I ended up figuring it out after some time. The snoo I have is an older model, so I had to go one more layer below and unscrew the casing around the bearings from the bottom in order to pull the bearing out.
@@Monicallme86 awesome! Glad you figured it out and thanks for sharing here!
Really couldn't be arsed tbh ...well done but I'd rather buy one for the extra money
Thanks for watching! Not sure if you made it to the end but at the time I did this they were sold out at IKEA.
how did you clean the yellow stains on the mesh exactly? Just detergent and wet towels did it?
Yes, Dreft and rubbing with a cloth and water got mine out
I’ve seen people use a Bissel spot bot for more serious stains
Love it! My husband just finished it. We use the bright room heavy duty 18-1/4 bins!
@@janelletaha7691 I’m so glad!!!
What’s the weight limit?
Hi! Thanks for watching. I’m sorry I don’t know the exact weight limit but a small adult can go down it…
I can’t get the clip covers back on! I wish you could’ve showed how to do this!
Hi! Look at this new video of mine at minute 15 th-cam.com/video/JCZq2rRBPC0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=MCbh8dSzyNjplS8L let me know if it helps?
I would recommend a to put a
A warning. This strips the paver sand in between. The pavers are going to start shifting and sinking without paver sand or polymeric sand to lock them in place. The sand also prevents growth. You will have to resand.
Thanks for watching. Sadly clearly any pacer sand we had or any barrier wasn’t preventing growth. Adding new sand sounds like a good option but this really needed a fresh start. We also now use a salt and water combo on weeds that spring up.
How do you dispose of all the slimy moss after power washing?
Either in your green waste or trash. Just use a broom and dustpan to pick it up. Best of luck!
Way to deprive your child of any visual stimulation. Bet your whole house is sterile gray and white too 😂 beige adults raising beige children
Hi! How did you pop off the pieces of the stove? I've been trying but have no idea how you managed it. Thanks!
Hi! You can try sliding a gift card under there. Basically you just want to loosen the glue. There are some dowels that attach the stove pieces to the top, but once you loosen the glue you should be good. You can also try a flatheads screwdriver if you need more leverage. Just try not to gauge the top. Good luck!
I wish i didn't watch this video. I cant get the screws back in and then i watched about 10 other videos and all of them and all the comments talk about how hard that is. I have no kdea how you got so lucky but ive been working on the 6 screws for 40 minutes now and read 100 comments of people who cant do it. I removed the plate and it wasnt dirty at all. Just like yours. I am so angry that i took it off.
Hi! Sorry you’re having difficulty! I’ve done this several times now and never had an issue getting the screws back in. I know it’s a common issue however. Best advice I can give is to alternate sides tightening a little each side.
In case it’s helpful for others looking for a solution, my husband ended up flipping the SNOO upside down, and he was able to get the two middle screws in fairly quickly from the bottom of the SNOO. After that, we flipped it back up to screw in the rest four.
@@beiouyingchuanamazing advice. Thanks for sharing
I was scratching my head for maybe 30mins trying to get them screws to line up. That is a genius idea with the floss. Thanking you kindly .

What screws does this take? I bought one used but it was missing the screws :(
🎉thank you
Thanks for watching!
This is great, thanks! Did you use any cleaning fluid, or only water?
Just water :) good luck!
Do you need a special nozzle to make the water spray in a larger range?
Hi! Thanks for watching. Mine came with three nozzles. This is the cone shaped one.
Great job! That turbo nozzle is great for removing moss/weeds in between papers. Now you need to sand them and seal them to make them look like new! 👍
Thanks so much!
Wow ! It looks beautiful ! I love it
Thank you so much!
I love this. I am wondering how many times do you need to empty the dirty water in this kitchen?
Hi! Thanks for watching and for your kind comment. As you probably suspect, how often you need to change the water depends on how your child uses the kitchen. If they run the water a long time when washing hands or wash several times a day you probably need to change daily. Otherwise you may have longer between changes. Remember though you can change the dirty water when the clean runs out. Your below sink containers should be roughly the same size. I hope that helps!
Hi mom!! Thank you for the walk through! Sooooo helpful! I bought the hooks you linked but can’t seem to figure out how to take off the pole.. could you please help 😅🥹😭😭
Sure! You need to actually loosen or take off one of the sides of the top to slip the rod out. Here’s the instructions for the kitchen so you can see what you need to loosen. Check out step 15/16 www.ikea.com/il/he/assembly_instructions/duktig-play-kitchen-birch__AA-1799826-13-2.pdf
Beautiful! I have the fridge + range piece and plan to refinish it & use it with the IKEA kitchen. I’m trying to make the 3 a set.
Thank you so much! Good luck with your redo!
This turned out so pretty ❤
Thank you so much!!!
The Pottery Barn set is created with "child-safe water-based paint." Ecos paint has some good low-toxic paints to use on children's items, but they aren't cheap. Milk paints may be better than Ecos, considering that kids touch the paint and put their hands in their mouth.
Literally JUST getting ready to do this for my daughter for Christmas! I am so ready to add some really cool upgrades! Thank you again!
Awesome! I’m so glad. Best of luck and if you want any of the exact items I used you can find them in the description. Hope your daughter loves your hard work!
Thanks for the video- just wondering how long did the cleaning and putting back together process take? I currently have a baby in the snoo so only have a couple of hours out of it at a time.... Thinking I might have to wait until he's done with the snoo before giving it a good clean.
You can definitely get this done quickly, particularly if you dry the mesh with a hairdryer on cool. I would just gather everything you might need in advance - vacuum, cleaning solution, towels, plastic gift or credit card, sweater shaver, etc - and then get to work when your window starts. I’d also suggest watching the other cleaning videos I linked in the description so you’re prepared for difficult levels of yuck and have multiple strategies for handling any problems that arise :) Good luck!
Thanks for the helpful video! How wide and long does the slide chute measure? Thinking of doing this with peel and stick wallpaper and want to make sure I have the right size.
Thanks so much for the kind comment! I’m not able to measure for you right now but you can probably find this information online. Also if you check out the contact paper I recommend then you know that width will work. Good luck!

Thanks for the vid. I was able to blow my wife's mind by cleaning our Snoo out so thoroughly!
I’m so glad! Enjoy your clean Snoo!
Hiya. How did you Secure the water pump? It moves whenever my Grandson touches it so he wants to pull it up.
You can use a bunch of different things…velcro like the sink or even something like Quake Hold or command strips. Good luck!
How long did the paint need to cure after drying?
I’d wait 24-48 hours just to be safe
Any tips on how to get the clip covers back on easily?
Sure. Make sure you’re pressing down the side closest to the mesh first - sort of the reverse of when you pried them up. Pop them down back side first. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching
@@myfrugalmommylife putting back those stupid clips took me like an hour!
Could you wash the mesh?
Thanks for watching. No, given how far I wanted to disassemble you can’t take the mesh off entirely at that stage
It take like 2 hours and it's very intricate if you want to wash the mesh, unfortunately. Poor design by snoo, I have pee on my mesh and cash get it cleaned
Brilliant!!! Love it
Thanks so much for the kind comment!
This is wonderful but the only thing I would change is the plastic container for fresh water, I would us glass.
You can certainly do that easily! Good luck and thank you for the kind comment.
Brilliant work!
Thank you so much!
How is the paint holding up? Did/do you have any issues with the books sticking to the paint?
Still looks like the day I painted it. No issues with books sticking
Any link to the target brushes? Thank you!
Sorry, no, they were in the Bullseye section when I purchased them.
@@myfrugalmommylife thank you ❤️
Hello! Thanks for the video. Curious how the contact paper held up after a year of use? Wanting to try something similar but worried that it’ll eventually need peeling and replacing
It held up great. No rips or tears
