If you're feeling cold at home, just reach for a few more layers of clothing. Instead of turning up the heat, wear an extra sweater or jacket. You can even drape yourself in a blanket for extra warmth.

The holiday season is the perfect time to test your baking skills. You can whip up a batch of fresh chocolate chip cookies, bake an apple pie or some banana nut muffins, and stay warm at the same time. The delicious aromas are always a plus too!

Aluminum foil has many practical uses. One of the uses is to stay warm, by placing a panel of the shiny foil behind the radiators or wall mounted heaters. The foil is used to reflect more heat back into the room and prevent it from leaving the rooms of the house.

5) Thick Curtains Prevent Heat from Escaping at Night
