Keep frozen food cold longer by doing this simple trick: Line the inside of your reusable bag with bubble wrap. Simply cut sheets of bubble wrap the size of the inside of the tote bag and safety pin them in place. The bubble wrap will help insulate the inside of the bag, keeping it cooler. When the bubble wrap deflates over time, unpin it and replace with a fresh sheet.

Reed diffusers are an easy way to add natural scent to a room without burning candles or spraying artificial fragrances. But buying new diffusers -- the vial of oil, the container and reeds, and all the packaging -- can be wasteful and expensive. Instead, buy a refill oil and use it in an old waterproof vase with a handful of Chinese takeout bamboo chopsticks as the reeds. You’ll save a lot of money and get the same effect.

Though magazine spreads often depict houseplants looking great on top of bookshelves or in guest bedrooms, these typically are less accessible areas in easily forgotten rooms. One tip is to keep your plants in areas that are commonly used and provide easy access to water: bathrooms and the kitchen are good places. The residual steam from a shower can even help water plants.
