About This Video

Today I’m doing something totally different for my channel: my very first cash stuffing video. I’m usually in my beauty budget lifestyle lane (project pans, declutters, all the fun stuff), but budgeting is a huge part of how I keep the “beauty” part realistic. In this video I cash stuff $385 using the cash envelope method (yes, the good old Dave Ramsey style), and I walk you through how I’m setting up my binders, how I’m using my EveryDollar budget to plan my paycheck, and how I’m trying to be intentional instead of just “hoping” money works out. I show my wallet envelopes for weekly spending like groceries, restaurants/work lunch, and even a makeup envelope because… obviously. Then I move into my other binders for sinking funds and longer-term categories like birthdays, a spa weekend/vacation, household basics, haircuts, and car maintenance (because that oil change is not going to pay itself). I also talk through why I’m using more affordable Amazon binders right now—there are gorgeous options out there, but I’m starting where I’m at. And yes, I mess up my breakdown and end up with extra cash at the end, which is honestly part of learning. My bigger goal is to get our finances in tip-top shape: pay off a small credit card balance, then tackle our car (about $11,000 left), and eventually build a six-month emergency fund.
