RE: Expensive Doesn't Make it Better!
When I was little, the only money my grandmother would spend on Christmas decorations was in the days after the holiday, when it all went on sale. Otherwise, we created everything...much like your family, we were never "poor," the word I would use is frugal. Great post!
Once in a while my mom would hit the after Christmas sales, primarily to buy wrapping paper for next year.
Yes, "frugal" is about right... enjoyable, but no waste or excess.
