This is creative way to reuse burlap and feedbags! The chair is available for sale at Colcha in Venice for $1600. The recycled burlap cushions is $42.00. Made with reclaimed wood legs and upholstered in European feed-sack fabrics. Cushions are recycled burlap.
I have about dozen very old burlap feed & potato sacks that are filthy (dusty, smelly, etc) would you happen to know the best/safest way to clean the bags to reuse in upholstery, pillow & accessory projects? Thanks.
I don’t know personally, but what i would do is handwash them with baking soda several times. Burlap is tough and they should clean up.
Great topic here.
Work of many people on this issue of plastic, there are several plastic materials recycling organic-based view. In February, for example, Imperial College London and bioceramic drug polymer biodegradable plastic from sugar derived from the decay of lignocellulosic biomass. There is also an existing plant more corn starch and plastics based on paper, including household goods and food packaging, bioplastics toys, plastic dynamic Cereplast. Metabolix also several lines of plastic products from corn, in cooperation with partner companies.
I have cushions that are odd shaped that I want to recover in these types of burlap – do you sell the burlap?
