Use cotton, wool, or fleece long-sleeved clothing since these materials work the best at maintaining body heat. Find slim-fitting clothes for your underlayer if you don't want to look bulky. Two or three layers work fine depending on the temperature, but the more layers you wear, the warmer you'll stay. The air between your layers of clothes holds heat and helps keep you warm. Use a pair of long underwear, or long johns, as your base layer. Many pairs are meant to dry quickly in case you get them wet with snow or slush. Flannel shirts are soft, thick, and stylish to wear while trying to stay warm. Find a knit or wool hat that fits over your ears to prevent any body heat from escaping through your head. For extra warmth, wear hats with a fur or synthetic fur lining. Keep hats on when you go outdoors, especially if the temperatures are below 32F (0C), so you don't get frostbite. If your scalp is cold, your core temperature will drop faster than it normally would. Tie your scarf so it doesn't come undone. Keep your mouth covered since the heat from your breath will help your face stay warm. It'll look a little funny, but wear a ski mask while playing outdoor sports or shoveling since a scarf might get in the way. Put on a coat lined with wool or down that's made for handling cold temperatures. Zip the coat all the way up to keep your core warm. The coat will protect you from the wind and elements whenever you're outside. Wear a water-resistant coat if it's wet or you plan on playing or working in the snow. That way, your clothes won't stay wet while you're outside. Wear gloves with a fleece or wool liner to keep your hands warm and to prevent them from drying out. If you plan on being active in the snow, find gloves made of a waterproof material so your hands don't get wet. If you want to be able to use your phone, make sure you get ones that work with a touchscreen. Mittens will keep your hands warmer, but you'll have more limited dexterity. If you don't have gloves, keep your hands in your coat pockets as much as you can. and wool socks if you plan on going outside for a long time. Wool socks and insulated boots will help keep your feet warm and prevent them from getting wet from snow or slush. Boots also have thick, non-slip soles so you're less likely to slip and fall. Leave your boots near a heat source in your home at night to let them dry for the next time you use them. Always bring a backup pair of shoes so you don't have to wear boots all day. Find socks that are moisture-wicking so they stay drier. If you have wet feet, you'll get cold.

Summary: Layer your clothes. Wear a hat to keep in body heat. Wrap a scarf around your mouth and neck. Bundle up in a large coat when you go outside. Keep your hands warm with gloves. Wear boots

Websites created from scratch require a fairly detailed understanding of HTML coding, but you can easily create a website by using a free hosting service like Weebly, Wix, WordPress, or Google Sites. Website creators tend to be much easier for first-time designers to use than HTML. If you do decide to code your own website, you'll need to learn both HTML and CSS coding. If investing the time and energy to create your website doesn't sound appealing, you can also hire a website designer to create your site for you. Freelance designers can cost anywhere between $30 an hour and well over $100 per hour. Before you even open a website creator, you should know approximately how many pages you want your website to have, what the content on each of those pages should be, and the general layout of important pages such as the home page and the "About" page. Your website's pages may be easier to visualize if you draw rough pictures of each of them rather than just determining what content should appear. While there's something to be said for fresh ideas, your website's basic design should follow established guidelines such as the following: Navigation options (e.g., tabs for different pages) should go at the top of the page. If you use a menu icon (), it should be in the top-left corner of the page. If you use a search bar, it should be near the upper-right side of the page. Helpful links (e.g., links to the "About" page or the "Contact Us" page) should go at the very bottom of each page. Whatever text font, color palette, image theme, and design options you choose, make sure that you use the same decision throughout your website. It can be incredibly jarring to see one font or color scheme used for the "About" page when a completely different one was used for the home page. For example, if you exclusively use cool-tone colors for your site's home page, don't implement bright, loud colors on the next page. Keep in mind that using loud or clashing colors, especially when the colors display in a dynamic (e.g., moving) fashion, can evoke epilepsy in a small number of web users. If you decide to use such colors on your site, make sure you add an epilepsy warning before any relevant pages. Placing direct links to important pages on your website at the top of the home page will help direct first-time visitors to the content that matters. Most site creators add these links by default. It's important to make sure that every page on your website is accessible by clicking through options on your website rather than only being accessible via the page's address. Like any other kind of design, website design relies on visually pleasing combinations of color; because of this, picking theme colors which go together is crucial. Black, white, and grey is a good combination if you don't know where to start. Minimalism encourages cool-tone colors, simple graphics, black-on-white text pages, and as little embellishment as possible. Because minimalism requires little in the way of fancy elements, it's an easy way to make your website look professional and attractive without requiring much work. Many website creators will have a "minimalist" theme you can select when setting up your website. An alternative to minimalism is "brutalism", which uses harsher lines, bright colors, bold text, and minimal imagery. Brutalism has less of a following than does minimalism, but depending on your website's content, it may better suit your design needs. Straight lines and grid-locked web elements are safe bets, but making a few unique stylistic decisions will both lend personality to your site and help your site stand out. Don't be afraid to buck trends by placing website elements asymmetrically or using overlapping elements to create a layered appearance. While elegant, sharp corners and squared-off elements (also known as a "card-based" presentation) are less favorable than are rounded, soft elements.
Summary: Determine whether you want to use a website creator. Map out your site. Use intuitive design. Be consistent. Add navigation options. Use colors which complement each other. Consider using a minimalist design. Make unique choices.
