Budget-Friendly Ways to Freshen Your Home
Holiday bills putting a cramp in your New Year but still want your home to look great? Here's some ideas HER-stories contributors offer as secret weapons.
1. Add Plants
For relatively little cash, you can add a treasure that will add life to your home year round. Plants also can filter out pollutants. Visit your local garden center to choose a fern or other new leafy friend.
2. Wall Decals
Inexpensive, pretty wall decals are a great way to add something to that vacant wall. We are especially tempted by the Anise pattern, $65. Check out the video, too!
3. Move Display Items
Rotate a glass vase collection from the kitchen to the bedroom and take that vacation souvenier out of the closet to give it some display time. New spot, new life, for your old favorites!

It might not be the most politically correct resolution women ever make...but a "look fabulous" goal is a secret fantasy women often have in mind when they commit to the "get in shape" resolution.
Trouble is...the cost of looking fabulous can come with a fabously-expensive price tag. But we women are savvy when it comes to multi-tasking, aren't we? Here's some economical beauty secrets professional penny watchers already know.
1. Go For Grape Seed Oil 16 ounces, $10
A powerful antioxident with anti-aging properties, this oil is great for underneath a moisturizer. Available at health food stores and some grocery markets.
Foods like garlic, salmon and flax seed oil protect the collagen you have and may help boost production of more. Incorporate these in your diet and feel good knowing your wrinkles might be having a tougher time.
3. Count on Coconut One can coconut milk -- about $2.50
Before washing your hair, pour and rub half-a-can of coconut milk into your scalp and strands. Wrap in a shower cap and relax for 15 minutes. Shower, shampoo and condition your hair as usual. Soft, shiny, and gives you a pina colada sensation! The best!
4. Go for Goji Berries Bag of 8 ounces of dried berries -- around $10
Chock full of antioxidents, goji berries support multiple aspects of good health -- including healthy skin. Did we mention that many experts promote this berry as one of the top anti-aging foods?
