If you use a ruler (of something similar) it makes the folds stronger and they then hold their shape better.
Have fun and enjoy the newspaper print on your hands! :D

I've tried the folding method - Reduced the size of the newspaper sheet by 25% to make them more space-saving.  Definately fold in the flaps when filling - stops them from unfolding.

Here they are:  all ready for the cold frame!
