Feel like doing a little DIY at home? Instead of buying expensive and rarely used home improvement equipment, consider renting. Major home improvement chains not only sell products, they rent them, too. You can find things like tillers, trenchers, sod cutters, chainsaws and blowers that are the best of their kind and a fraction of the cost of buying. Renting also lets you try things before committing to a full purchase. Rent by the day or the week, and turn your basic lawn into a professional-looking showcase.

While placing heavy drapes over windows is a sure-fire way to keep your home cozy during the winter months, it also blocks sunlight from entering your home. An alternative idea that helps insulate and lets sunlight in is to use stick-on window film on top of your windows. This self-stick product goes directly onto your window, and it's absolutely clear. It provides an extra layer of insulation that reduces heat loss in the winter, blocks harmful UV rays and -- in the hot summer months -- blocks heat from coming in. It's inexpensive, easy to install and will pay for itself over time.

The organization accepts lightly used wedding gowns in all sizes, as well as accessories like veils and tiaras, and finds military brides in need to receive them. The organization has been honored by Michelle Obama and Jill Biden for its efforts to support active military members. Learn more at bridesacrossamerica.com
