You have a old cushion ruined And don’t you know what to do with it? Today we reveal some creative ideas to recover it and transform it into something new. You can transform it into a paraspifferi or into a practical pouf, or still use it as a soft pillow for your pets. Here you are 7 DIY ideas To try!
Multipurpose rags
A simple, but super practical idea: open the pillow, remove the padding and cut out the external fabric in rectangular or square pieces. You will get perfect rags for domestic cleaning, to be used and reuse!
Padding for a new pillow
If it is only the lining that is ruined, then the internal sack that contains the padding, you can recover the latter and reuse it to pack a new pillow, creating a do-it-yourself federal obtained from an old fabric to make it aesthetically cute.
Pet cushion
If the pillow is a little worn but still soft, you can put it in a clean federa or cover it with an old sheet, and turn it into a soft mattress for your dog or cat. Alternatively, donate it to an animal refuge: it will be useful as an emergency bed or support in the pits.
DIY PARSPIFFERI
Recover the padding and use it to create a paraspifferi to be placed in front of the doors. They are enough of the fabric and a pinch of manual skills!
Garden support
If you often happen to work kneeling in the garden, use the old pillow as a support base to protect your knees and remain cleaner.
Pouf
Have you collected the padding of one or older cushions? Don’t throw it away! It can become the soft soul of an artisan pouf, ideal as a footrest or additional seat.
Bearmings for chairs or benches
Finally, why not recover the padding to make small outdoor cushions, to be placed on benches or chairs? You just need simple lining with laces, insert the padding and use the cushions to make the seats more comfortable.
