“Want a simple way to make heating your home more efficient and less pricey? Make sure all those gaps where hot air escapes and cold air invades are closed-up! One of the most persistent culprits is the gap beneath a door, and the most popular solution is, of course, a draft stopper. You don’t need to run out to the store for an expensive pre-made one OR for materials to make a DIY one. All you need are some old tights, leftover wrapping paper tubes, and this video from our friends at Rumble.”

“The kotatsu table, in particular, gets a lot of use in the winter. It’s amazingly comfortable and we spend a ton of time around it. What is a kotatsu table exactly? A kotatsu table is basically a coffee table with two top surfaces, a heating element, and a big blanket to keep the heat in. I’m not sure where I first learned about the kotatsu table. I must have seen it in a Japanese comic or cartoon when I was a kid. The kotatsu table is very common there and every household has one. Most Japanese housing are not insulated well and the kotatsu table is an inexpensive way to stay warm.”
