GETTING A HOUSE PLANT.
While a house plant may be dimmed an item for decoration in the house.it can also be conveniently used as a homemade humidifier.
It is a simple yet effective way to humidify your home.
Plants need water to survive. The water is then given back to the environment in a process called transpiration, which, as Wikipedia puts it, the process by which plants take in water and give out to its surrounding environment. Hence causing a humid environment in the house.

Take an old spray bottle, clean it with enough detergent, use the old spray bottle to fill up water. Spray water on the curtains of the dry room to dampen it.
Let them slowly dry out, and they will help creating a more humid atmosphere.
USING A BOWL OF SEARING HOT WATER
Place a bowl Of water on the stove and let it boil. Cover the bowl with a lid to allow steam to form then take to the room that needs humidifying.
Uncover the lid to late steam into the air, this will leave the dry room more humid.
A HOT SHOWER HUMIDIFIER.
Humidifiers work by sending steam back into the air. There is no better way of producing steam into the air than with a hot shower.
Keep the bathrooms open while taking a shower.
Though this method is only convenient if the dry room is close to the shower area.
THE SIMPLE SPONGE TECHNIQUE
A soaked sponge exposed to the air helps increase humidity. Water in the sponge evaporates causing the environment around to be humid.
AIR DRYING OF LAUNDRY INSIDE.
