Creative Sources for Materials
Use your imagination when looking for sources of material for your
decorating and crafting projects. For instance, fabric is found in a
lot more places than just the sewing store!
How about a favorite old sweater recycled into a throw pillow cover?
Or the seat of a pair of worn-out jeans for a pillow on a child's bed
or chair? An old striped button down shirt could recover that extra
chair in the corner, or that beautiful old skirt, stained on one side,
could make accessories for the family room.
Thrift stores and garage sales are great places (continued at

not big enough

bulky zip, rivets, bulky seams, looks crp as well. Other than that...


An old striped button down shirt could recover that extra
chair in the corner,


material too thin for that, wouldnt last well.


or that beautiful old skirt, stained on one side,
could make accessories for the family room.


skirts and dresses are big enough for a pillowcase, and the range
of designs is huge.
