Danny Seo's brilliant. He took wool and cashmere sweaters from Goodwill and used them to reupholster chairs from Ikea's scratch-and-dent room. Via: Simply Green

Hell yes! I am definitely going to try this -- maybe with some cotton fabric (t-shirts?) for the summer, when my vinyl chairs get unpleasantly sticky.

be careful when upholstering with fabrics that arent usually meant for it. t-shirt material and old sweaters will pill in no time...

Very cute, but, credit where credit is due, I think I saw this in a Martha Stewart magazine years ago.

How cool is that table? Iron plant stand with a sturdy top? Love it!
