Pallet Ottoman

Pallet Ottoman



It's been way too cold to paint anything out in the shop.  I've learned how to crochet thanks to my very patient DIL and have made two (actually 1 1/2) afghans.  I needed an indoor project and since DIL Lucy and I gathered a million pallets last summer, I decided to use one of them.  I found a tutorial for an ottoman on Shelly Miller Leers blog.  It turned out great and will be a nice change from the table I usually have in the living room.  The only thing I would do differently is find a supplier of wide foam.  The fabric stores only sell 24 inch wide foam so I had to use two pieces.  It's also really expensive. Luckily, it was 50% of at JoAnn's.
