Cereal boxs are great for protecting ornaments and easy to post as they are not so heavy i even put shoes and clothes in them books etc saves paper from ripping and easier for those ackward items to wrap

Hi Easyliving,
Just wondering how the bubble wrap works to keep the plants protected. We've had lots of plants die in the frost. Your advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Elbo.

Hi, I just wrap the wrap around the pots and cover the top of it also. Just leave a few pin pricks for ventilation. If the plant is higher than the pots I use stryoform around the pot and then put the wrap over the top. It can also be used for seedings and they germinate really fast if left on a sunny window sill.
Another use I have for it is to stick it on my palstic green house where the zip is broken. It is the best thing for keeping frost from the plants. I hope this is of help to you, I would never be without the stuff!

I forgot to say that if you want to stick it then use electrical tape, it stays put.
