Surely many have encountered the problem of the “throughput” of windows in an apartment, which provides the home with drafts.

In winter, in conditions of strong winds and fierce snowstorms, the issue is especially relevant.

There is an option to deal with the inconvenience once and for all.

It is enough to make a simple but extremely effective remedy that will reliably block drafts.

We need a piece of warm flannel fabric from which we will sew a small long pillow.

The product can be made in a rectangular shape or in an elongated form, something like a “sausage”.

We will equip one end of the pillow with a zipper - this will make it easy to replace the filling.

It is the latter that is “responsible” for the efficiency of the product’s functioning.

We stuff the pillow tightly with pine needles, which can be collected in a forest or park.

Place the finished pillow on the windowsill. Now the cold air will be blocked and will not be able to penetrate into the home through the cracks.

At the same time, the pine needles inside will not only protect you from the cold, but will also fill the room with a pleasant forest scent.

By the way, this aroma also has disinfectant properties, which is extremely important in cold weather.

Dried needles can be easily replaced with fresh ones thanks to the zipper.
