Covering Trampoline Springs With Pool Noodles

We were blessed by our neighbors a few years ago, in the form of a trampoline. Our children were thrilled and have spent more hours than I ever imagined they would. My son especially loves the trampoline and you will find him on it almost every day. I saw the idea to cover the springs with pool noodles and decided it would be so fun to do!
The trampoline didn't have a mat to cover the springs anymore. I came across the idea to cover the trampoline springs with pool noodles! This looked like it would be fun, easy and affordable. Besides adding a great pop of color! And I love bright, happy colors.
We gathered up pool noodles, measured and began to cut them. When cutting, take into consideration the streeeeeeetch the spring will have when connected to the trampoline. I didn't. Not a big deal, it just doesn't completely cover the whole spring once connected to the mat.
Ready for jumping with a festive summertime look!

They work great on table and bar corners to protect head bumps from toddlers or short people.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
so what stops them from putting leg through them and breaking a leg? They usually have a cover over that whole edge. I would only use the noodles under a cover period. If they fall in between and then fall off you have a disaster there.
Amazing idea. Love it.
where did you buy the noodles? Hoe big the diameter should be?
