#9 Easy Fix for the Draft!

If you feel the draft coming from under your doors or from your windows, why not repurpose those old curtains that have been sitting somewhere in a storeroom for ages? You can easily make this draft dodger to catch all the unwelcomed cold that enters your house and then feel better that you have used an item that was just gathering dust somewhere in your home.

You can always only use the curtains to make them. After you sew together the shape you need for the draft dodger, you can use the extra fabric to stuff it! Anyone who tells you that you can’t use everything in your house is lying to you!

And if you’re looking for a more hands-on DIY project, why not build your own garden fire pit?
