Original question by: @poppichew@piefed.social
If you buy things to any extent, you’ve probably got some leftover packaging hanging around. What are some cool ways you’ve found to make use of all these materials? Special props to ideas that can be replicated!
I tried the cardboard trick in the garden one time, but it just rotted after a good rain, and the grass/weeds came through pretty quickly.
We had similar results. Some spots held up better than others, so overall it’s not a terrible idea, but it’s not 100% effective either.
