Bubble Wrap Warmth for your Home

This nifty idea came from Builditsolar.com. You spray a fine mist of water on a window, then stick a sheet of bubble wrap to it. It’s almost magic the way it stays on, and you can have fun popping a few bubbles along the way. And it still lets in light, so it’s great for bathroom windows and so forth. Allegedly the bubble wrap roughly doubles the R-value of a single-glazed window. On my old windows, I can feel the difference in insulation immediately. This was a free project for me, as I had a pile of bubblewrap saved in the basement from something. But you could <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s?initialSearch=1&url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=bubble+wrap&x=18&y=20
