Is bubble wrap more effective when the bubble is face on to the fragile item or facing away.
Usually pop the stuff. but would like an oppinion as am wrapping fragile ornaments.

BUBBLES TO THE OUTSIDE.
BIT MORE CUSHIONING ON IMPACT

My bubble wrap faces outwards, cos if anything bumps it, it'll get cushioned BEFORE it gets to the thing I've wrapped. If you face it INWARDS, the impact is too near to the fragile object, so I like to think the protection is there FIRST. The "psychotic genius" had the best idea, though - double bubble for protection on both sides.

Place the bubble towards the item being wrapped! It gives us piece of mind!

Double it up if you have enough, one layer bubbles on inside and one layer bubbles on outside.
Personally I would put the bubbles on the INSIDE as they will then conform to the shape of the ornaments.

i would say away from the item because then it doesn't pop on the object wrapped up in it and absorbs more of the impact. hope it gets where its going in one piece.
