Stay Warm and Save Money: Get Your Windows Dressed

Posted by | May 2, 2017 | Filed under: Culture

We're just about out of "heating season" but we already know that our small investment in window inserts has been beneficial. The inserts helped seal up leaky old windows in the Laudholm Visitor Center farmhouse, cutting down on chilly drafts and adding a layer of insulating air to reduce our fuel consumption and save us money.

WindowDressers inserts made such a noticeable difference here that we're inspired to help you save money and stay warmer next winter too.

Sign up to get your windows measured by WindowDressers volunteers this spring, summer, or fall. We'll host a "Community Workshop" build during the second week of December here and your inserts will be ready to deliver and install before the holidays. Come join us in making them!

To get started, visit the WindowDressers website to learn more and sign up online for a workshop this coming season

As the bard says, "WINTER IS COMING."
