love this idea and with the Campaign for Wool week (patron-ed by HRH Prince of Wales) fast approaching in the UK - very topical -
so cute I will try this for the holidays, -
Now THAT'S different!! -
Gives a whole new meaning to the ugly sweater. Maybe take all those ugly Christmas sweaters and make decorations -
Now who woulda thought it?

The more herringbone the better.I love having the possessions of those I love around me around me. My Grandfather made me promise to use the the pillowcases and the dish towels my Grandma lovingly embroidered,. I do and everytime I am reminded of her love for her family. Let the ideas for displaying our treasures keep coming! -
wonderful idea love it -
Great Idea! Another use for old sweaters. I collect cashmere sweaters of all sizes and shapes...going to make a bead spread of cashmere. A guilty pleasure I've had for a few years! I find them at estate sales thrift shops and good will. I am patient and I have almost all i need after 3yrs of collecting. -
Could probably find some great sweaters at 2nd hand shops.

i have done that with those long slippers and put a bottle of wine in one ,it was cute for an adult birthday gift -
How creative....wow! -
Very creative and pretty dust catcher! At least you can just throw them in the wash. I love the idea and have the perfect sweater just calling my name! -
How about KNEE HIGH SOCKS? Same effect. -
might be cute
-
Now that is thinking out of the box. -
absolutely incredible and inoavative Good for you -
What ans awesome idea! How many times I have hated to dump my favorite sweaters! -
NOW YOU DONOT HAVE LOL
-
cute for a vase or wine cozy, but I would be very careful on the candle things that are being shown in the picture. -
You are assuming those are real candles. There are now artificial candles that look real. The sweater decoration can only add warmth to the flicker of light from an artificial candle. Give us a little credit for not being fire bugs in our decorating. -
Very cozy and adds such winter fun! Especially those really bright ones that you really only wore -because-...Great idea. Do they need to be lightly glued on to glass vase? Or...just tight enough to stay put? -
n i just give away a bunch darn -
would be nice to gift these, I am sure we could find additional uses for them. -
you can also cut off the hem and make headbands for the winter. the sleeves can be sewn shut/be used for that extra pair of socks under your boots. most of the sweaters have really long sleeves so cut them shorter/little ones can use them as sweaters under/over their coats. and depending you the size of your dog/cat they can be worn by them too. thanks for sharing your ideas, they are wonderful -
What a great idea!
