Thingy to put up against the door bottom to block drafts....
Advertisements [?]
I had some old and slightly worn bath towels which I just recycled into door draft blockers. I took one of those styrofoam bats they sell in the summertime for kids to play with at the pool. They sort of look like the insulation for water pipes only bigger and they have hole through the middle. I cut one of these in half and poked one corner of the towel, laid lengthwise, into the center hole and rolled the bat until the towel was completely used up. Then I took the remaining corners of the towel and poked them into the hole too. I can remove the towels to wash them or swap them out with other old towels later.
