This handmade door draft stopper is made with a pretty flannel fabric, and filled with play sand. The sand is inside a plastic bag that lines the flannel, which will keep the sand from getting wet if your stopper is in an area that gets wet from rain or snow. Being filled with sand as opposed to something like rice or beans, prevents critters from being attracted to it. To block a draft, place the stopper on your floor stretched out, and shake it back and forth, molding it to the thickness you want, then press it and push as you go, up against the crack. The sand will form to the area you need to block. Before filling when fabric was laid flat (after being sewn), each of these door stops measures anywhere from 2.5" - 3" wide. Once assembled, each measures anywhere from 6" - 7" circumference. No two will be exactly alike, since they are handmade. cold heat barrier window breeze smoke gap crack fill bugs snake stop
