It's now the coldest time of the year, fact. We can feel the cold air even when ensconced in our living rooms with the heating on.
I really don't like being cold, I would rather be hot than cold any day of the week. This is my personal choice, as I know a lot of people embrace the wintry weather with open arms.
As I can't make the weather any warmer, I have to stay warm and try to save money; here are my top tips for both.

A fireplace blower is a great idea if you have a fireplace you use regularly. Instead of the heat just reaching the hearth as it normally does, it will warm the entire room.
The heat that the fireplace generates is blown throughout the room so it warms everyone, not just those sat in front of it. This means you can do without having your heating on at the same time, ultimately proving to be cost effective.
One of my personal favorites is my heated blanket. I switch it on an hour or so before I go to bed and my bed id so cozy when I get in that I don't need any additional heating on.
I find that once I'm in my heated bed and my body warms through, I get too hot so I turn the blanket time and drift off easily into a restful sleep. Others turn them off altogether; it's entirely up to you which heat you are comfortable with.
The last one for today is incredibly simple; putting blinds up at your skylight. These are notorious for letting in drafts and a blind goes a long way to stopping them.
These little touches can save you a lot of money through the long wintry months. Even if you only try one you will see a difference.
