It’s the most wonderful time of the year; the time for binge eating, gift giving, family visits and all that jazz. It is also the time of year that when you open your wallet and dust and moths pop out. So what happens after the holidays when you are locked in the house due to the cold? Here are ten things to do that will not break your bank account.
- Plan your summer vacation
Winter may not be the best time to run around the backyard or sit on the beach and tan, so why not start the summer season early and plan out the perfect vacation.
- Start Spring Cleaning
It may be a few months early, but isn’t spring the time to take walks and spend time outside, so why spend time cleaning then? Start early while you are locked inside and get your closet spring ready. And while you are getting rid of clothes, you can plan your next shopping trip.
- Get crafty
If you have a Facebook, you will definitely know about the tasty or nifty videos that give easy 5 step meals or 5 minute crafts, so get started!
- Binge watch TV
With our lovely friends Netflix, HBO go and Hulu, it is so easy to watch your favorite show, or entire series in one sit down.
- Write
Everyone has a creative side, you just have to find yours. Find a quiet place, get a nice cup of tea, and let your imagination run wild.
- Get your summer bod ready
Everyone makes the new year’s resolution to lose weight or work out, but who really goes through with it? This year, start off early and get yourself in shape in the comfort of your own home.
- Practice makeup
Ladies if you scroll down any social media feed, you are bound to see makeup tutorials or pictures, so why not try them out! Plus, if it turns out terrible, no one will see because you aren’t leaving your house!

When all else fails, sleep!
