apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I enjoy a good popping session as much as the nest person but...NO

oops, next*

"The danger, of course, is that guests might be tempted to pop your creation away..."

I know I would. I'm not allowed to be around bubble wrap.

Although...is bubble wrap soundproof?

I like it. I used to use bubble wrap on windows to diffuse light for photography. It makes the light really pretty.

Next project: Lining the windows with aluminum foil.

sure, why not? set into wood frames would pass for something high rent easily. who says you have to buy $2K designer glass plates to create the same effect? this project is definitely a good test at discerning who's a snob or not. if it's done VERY well i bet no one would be able to tell what it is right off the bat.

oh - and doesn't the fact that using such a contraption automatically scores you Enviro-conscious points? that's a definite plus. reuse!

Oh, this is just perfect for my cardboard shack underneath the freeway!

Can a BubbleWrap(tm) shower curtain be far behind?

Wow, all you need is an abandoned car on the front lawn and you're all set.

Fail.

I would be too tempted to pop them...so I would say NO to these.

This would not last 5 minutes in my home. Pop pop pop.

Really good free window insulation in the winter - put it behind curtains in windows the neighbors don't see, keep your house warm and save lots of energy. Put it over an in-window air conditioner stop air leaks.

If you have metal window frames, you can attach it with those strong, tiny magnets or you could stretch it over a wood frame/stretcher strips.

Ummm... No. I simply don't have the self-control that it would take to avoid the popping spree.

And, it still looks like bubble wrap to me. Nothing interesting about it. Maybe the recycling potential but not a whole lot else.

EPIC FAIL!

Ugh! Very "decorating cents"...

wouldn't the bubbles just collect dust on the raised side? that would look icky--a dusty piece of plastic hanging in front of your window. bleagh! although, I guess you could take it outside & hose it off...
