Ellawatson on Feb 03, 2015I also use empty plastic bottles. The bigger the pot, the bigger bottles I use. Cuts half the soil and heaviness out of the pot!Helpful Reply

Donna Hagen on Feb 04, 2015I have covered mine with fleece that matches my sofa & love seat and that them stuck under just enough so you cant see them but it keeps my small dogs toys from going all the way under the sofa and the best part is she is no longer ripping up the the fabric underneath.Helpful Reply

Terri on Feb 05, 2015I've used similarly shaped tubes (that bolts of fabric are rolled on): just roll in quilt batting and covered with fabric to create poof valances that never loose their poof.Helpful Reply

Victoria D on Feb 06, 2015You know how trow pillows are to soft sometimes, how about wrapping them in bating or old sweaters, cloths and making a pretty case and turn them into pillows or for propping behind your pillows to read in bed.Helpful Reply

Sharon de Vries on Feb 10, 2015if you covered it and used outdoor fabric would make great portable seat to take with you esp in a boat and styrofoam bounces back body heat so great to keep you warm…and it would be a floatation device if necessary…i am sure you would come up with good ideas….the noodles are good to stuff between breakables and art when moving packed tightly…Helpful Reply
