I decided we needed something a little heavier duty than my oven draft solution for the front door. I’m pleased with the end result: the legs of one pair of old jeans sewn together and stuffed loosely with other cast-off clothing. It keeps the cold air out, stays in place, and doesn’t show dirt.
Come back tomorrow for a more frivolous use of cast-off denim =)
