Question:

how can i stay warm if my room has super thin walls and no heater? 10 points!?

It recieves air through three of the walls. The walls are super thin. How can i stay warm if i have no heater? will candles help enough? i have a small mobile heater.? will it be enough?

Answer:

The best insulator in the world is trapped air. Tools: Duct Tape Painter's tarp Staple gun Tin Foil wall-paper the room with tin foil Remove any carpeting to get to bare floor use a staple gun to attach (hang) to the ceiling, Use duct tape to seal the edges of the tarp and over the staples at the top and bottom. run this around all the walls in the room 2 away from the walls. Do your best to make it as air tight as possible. You obviously won't be able to seal over the door. The tin foil will reflect heat and light back into the room through the tarp, and the tarp will trap the air making an insulator.
please dont use candles- i worry that a fire will start while you sleep. you can get a down blanket that is very warm yet very light feeling. if your room is very drafty, cover up even your head, only let your nose out for air. if you dont have down, then several light blankets and be sure to keep your socks on and wear warm but light pajamas. i had a very cold apartment that let cold air in from the windows that fit very poorly. there would actually be ice INSIDE the windows during the winter. for this, i got thermal lined curtains. they actually had rubber on the window side of the curtains. you'd be surprised how much cold air that keeps out. good luck to you. i pray you stay warm.
Do not burn candles why you are asleep. It could start a fire. Same thing with the portable heater. Best thing to do is to get a heavy quilt. You can also insulate the room (sort of) by hanging blankets, quilts, or heavy curtains on the walls. If you want to use less material, you can rig up a sort of tent of blankets, quilts, etc around the bed.
