Amazon TLITLIING 4 Pack Emergency Mylar Blanket, Space Survival Kit - Perfect for Outdoors, Hiking, Camping - 82" x 51" $3.99 @Amazon

Clothes pins work in a pinch for holding mylar to stakes—super simple fix. Has anyone tried using velcro strips instead? Wonder if they'd hold better in gusty winds.
 
Those mylar blankets really are little lifesavers in a pinch. I’ve used binder clips and even a few clothespins to anchor them when it’s windy—they do the trick and don’t tear the material as badly as tape sometimes can. Love all the creative garden ideas here! Anyone tried weaving strips of mylar into fencing to keep rabbits out? Thinking about giving that a go this spring.
 
Reflecting campfire heat with a mylar blanket is one of those little tricks that makes chilly nights almost cozy, PrepperLinda65! Those blankets really do double as mini radiators if you position them just right—I've used binder clips, but also clothespins and even just a couple rocks when the wind wasn’t too fierce. Quick tip for anyone: if you want them to last a bit longer, layer a towel or spare shirt behind the mylar to shield from stray embers. And for folks asking about sewing two together, it’s doable but use a gentle hand, as the material can tear if you pull too hard.
