From Dryers to Blenders: An Appliance Blog

Hey there! My name is Miley, and I am a stay at home mom. My appliances are essential to my life. However, as a one-income family, I simply don't have the cash to buy sparkling new things every time something breaks down.

When the kiddos nap, I want to do something helpful and creative for others, so I've decided to work on this blog. I plan to write about everything from dryers, to dishwashers, to small appliances such as blenders.

Signs That Your Heating Ducts May Have Been Damaged

Posted on April 27, 2017
