Although upholstery material can be very expensive (think $25+ a yard), you can find it on sale. I know that having someone redo an upholstered piece is expensive, but I now understand why – there is a lot of manual and time-consuming work involved. photo by: The post Used Furniture – Re-purpose, Recycle, Re-use.

My husband and I aren’t constant consumers. I put a bag full of her creations to go out to recycling, and my husband intercepted them because he couldn’t handle throwing out her work. If something is cheap at a garage sale, I may buy it even if I’m not sure that I’ll use it. What do I have to lose?

I recycle mine after three months. Sure I need dishwashing soap, but it might not always be on sale or a better coupon may come next week. I personally find it too time consuming but people swear by it and love having their coupons organized. It is very time consuming. It can be time consuming to clip and file coupons.
