WINTER IS HERE!!!!! Yes its that time already welcome, time to swap the wardrobe around and rug up to keep warm. So to help you keep healthy, toasty and warm whilst not blowing your budget we have researched a few good options to help guide you.
– Yes just like jack here put on extra layers, get a good jumper or hoodie on and thick socks around the house always helps to keep you warmer 🙂
– Get some door snakes! always a great option to reduce drafts and they really seem to be back in vogue – with plenty of funky colours to choose from- check out your local Kmart retailer http://www.kmart.com.au/product/draught-stop—black/820845?cm_vc=PDPZ1
– Set your timer and thermostat to when you really need the heating- morning and when returning from work, the trick is not to forget to switch it off before you go to sleep.
– Look at easy to instal curtains, ensure your landlord is happy with the addition, they won’t break the bank and can look great! Eyelet curtains are generally the best options and your local spotlight generally has a great range http://www.spotlightstores.com/curtains-blinds/curtains/eyelet-curtains/c/eyelet-curtains
