AnonyMouse_4869 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Hi, Im just wondering whether anyone has sourced any post padding from safety-pads.co.uk. We have 2 square edged metal posts right in the middle of our outdoor area, and have already had 3 banged heads! So need to source some padding. If you have sources from anywhere else, or have any tips for a cheap but effective solution please let me know! Thank you lucie x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 B and Q, Homebase etc sell grey pipe cladding (best way I can describe it), its round so may not be totally suitable but you could maybe adapt it - its not expensive; maybe worth a look!

AnonyMouse_3735 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 We use bubble wrap a couple of layers either tied on with string or velcro straps. we also put a bright colour ribbon on our tree to highlight it was there and no more banged heads. cannot afford anything else and it works well Inge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea though Inge. Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_3735 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Ofsted loved it... said she would never forget our outside area as it was the first time she had seen a tree bubble wrapped ... ( at the time we had a big spate of banged heads on the tree... now the ribbon works well.) Funnily enough not one has spent time trying to pop it.....
