DIY Insulation
Keeping your home warm during the coldest winter months can be a challenge. Turning up the heat might help, but it often just isn’t enough. Besides, that’s a pretty expensive solution. You can layer on several sweaters and blankets, but then you won’t be able to get anything done all day. Thankfully, you don’t need to resign yourself to living inside a freezer.
Your windows are a big liability in the fight to keep your home feeling warm and toasty. Glass isn’t great at keeping out the cold air. However, for a bit of insulation, you can use bubble wrap. This material does a great job at preventing cold breezes from penetrating your home; just wet the bubbles and stick the right onto the glass!
