The main culprit for today is a drafty door. Until now the fix has been a haphazardly placed towel, which really isn't very effective or attractive. Foam pipe insulation stuffed into a custom made fabric sack is a much better, and far more stylish option. This door draft stopper uses two foam pipes to provide coverage on both sides of the door. It also allows the door to be opened and closed fairly easily without having to re-adjust your draft stopper. When I first saw this idea I was sold!
I found this great tutorial on flickr by not martha. I only followed the general idea, and basically winged it using my own measurements. I also opted for a thick, canvas-like fabric to minimize wear and tear.
This was quick and easy to make, used cheap materials, and best of all - it works!
