Coffee Sack Ottoman
A tired dirty ottoman was transformed into this fun piece for under $7 by reusing the upholstery tacks from the original piece and wrapping it in fabric that was sitting in my fabric stash.
The finished piece
Used old coffee sacks for the sides and IKEA curtain fabric for the top.
Supplies used:
two coordinating fabrics - one for the top and one for the sides
-large upholstery tacks
-tacky glue (or fabric glue)
-hammer
-screw driver
-pliers
-duct tape
-paint for the legs
I wanted to use the actual stitched sides of the coffee sacks for the ottoman's corners but in doing so, the corners seemed to poke out... they were a bit bulky. To solve that problem, I used tacky glue and duct tape to calm them down.
