A little sofa love with this feed sack, pallet couch creation. Reuse found fabrics to reinvent tattered cushions or try building furniture before buying. Thinking outside the box never looked so comfortably, awesome.

TEN REASONS TO JOIN FORRAGE
#8 - With a garbage patch visible from space, something needs to change.
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (so large, it even has a name) “is estimated to be roughly twice the size of Texas and in some parts, one hundred feet deep, if not deeper. It’s a floating stew of 3.5 million tons of garbage, 90 percent of which is plastic…”
Items should only be trashed as a last resort. Enough said.

We’re loving these DIY knob hangers. A few lonely knobs, a few coats of paint, and you’ve got yourself a unique and highly useful hanger system. Great for hallways or behind doors.
