Outdoor potted plants that can't be brought indoors, like shrubs and evergreens, can be protected from the cold, harsh winter weather by upcycling simple bubble wrap. Wrap the pots with a few layers of old bubble wrap and use shipping tape to secure it in place. The air pockets will help insulate the roots of the plant in the same way a greenhouse would, protecting it from the freezing elements. Come springtime, remove the bubble wrap and your plant should thrive in the warmer months.

A lot of people will splurge on a designer handbag or accessory before attending an important milestone event, like a wedding or reunion. Instead of spending tons of money on something you may regret purchasing later, think green by renting instead. At websites like RentMeaHandbag.com and BagBorroworSteal.com, you can rent designer duds much like you would rent a DVD: You pay only for the amount of time you use it. Name-brand bags can be yours for as little as $10 per week.
