Ever since I came across a pool noodle when searching for a noodle recipe, I have been obsessed by this foam contraption. I'd never heard of one before (although I did know there are various types of flotation devices) and its name just tickled me. And thanks to my slightly weird, ok, very weird, obsession, I've compiled this list of ways to use a pool noodle - some of which are genius, some not so but fun anyway.

Banish those draughts.
Cut your pool noodle to the width of your door or window, then make a slit along one side to tuck it onto the bottom edge, creating an instant draft stopper. This nifty trick helps keep the cold out during those brisk months, ensuring your home stays cozy and warm without ramping up the heating bill. It's a simple, cost-effective solution for sealing up those pesky drafts. Plus, when winter turns to spring, it's just as easy to remove and store away until next year. Think smart, save energy, and stay snug with this clever little lifehack!
