On the street frost and wind, and even plastic windows and insulated doors with difficulty restrain the drafts. And now the problem of maintaining heat in the house and protection against drafts becomes more actual.
Do you know how you can decorate your home, make it warmer and do not spend nothing?
Today we will talk about it.
How to get rid of drafts?
Many options. One of them is to store and buy a special insulation for windows and doors.
You can, of course, solve the problem easier and use the proven method of our grandmothers: put on the windowsill or under the door roller, twisted from the old towel or some small blanket.
But, you see, it looks like something is not very.
There is a much more creative way - this is a special decorative insulation from a draft under the door or on the windowsill, which you can buy or make it yourself from the girlfriend, while safely saved.
How to make a roller from draft do it yourself?
First of all, you need to choose the decorative decoration model you like to protect against draft or come up with something yourself.
Many options. It can be pillows, rollers or toys. For example, such:
Materials from which you can make such a self-made insulation can be the most different. For example, you can sew such a roller from the residues of the fabric, from multi-colored ties or patchworks or tie with crochet (or knitting knitting).
In addition, if part of this uncomplicated design to turn into a face and decorate with several funny strokes (eyes, tongue), it may turn out to be a very attractive little animal, which, no doubt, will decorate your home.
For packing you can use any material: Singyprun, Hollofiber, Porolan - everything you have at home.
It took us a roller from the drafts to the windows insulation in one of the rooms, where it usually becomes cold and uncomfortable when the wind changes the direction and begins to blow from the northeast.
I decided to associate my charming caterpillar-worm, as it gets better for me than to sew.
For a start, I made a revision of the remaining threads and chose all the little girls and even very small residues of the threads (length from 100 centimeters).
Knit decided the crochet and the easiest way (the column without Nakida). You can use all threads: different textures and thickness (if the thread is very thin, you can connect several together). The result was a long roller pouch in the size of the window. By the way, the same knitted roller from the draft can be done under the door.
For packing, I used the remains of the foam rubber, which was previously crushed with scissors into small pieces.
After the filling, I slightly decorated my caterpilot: glued eyes and hair. This is such a beauty.
In my opinion, it turned out very pretty, and a few more tasks were decided:
- The room was warmer and cozy
- There was no need to include a heater - and this is more oxygen indoors and electricity saving
- I used that long ago occupied the desired place in the cabinets - the remnants of multi-colored threads remaining from previous knitting, and the remains of the foam rubber, which remained after the repair of the chairs
- Decorated the interior of an unusual and funny little thing
Plus, he received great pleasure from work, strengthened health (after all, as it is known, knitting is the best way to get rid of stress) and did not spend a penny.
Everything is very simple, economically and functionally. And how much fun and benefit.
