The decision to make a suitable sofa with your own hands is a great way to decorate your home for little money. You can make a sofa from different materials, and you definitely need tools. The task can be tricky and for your inspiration, take a look at what creative people already have created.
Some of these designs are very charming and very doable but I say Absolutely No pallets! I’m looking to create a surround for a daybed without the fancy frame. I know pallets are cheap, as in free or nearly so. They are in huge stacks outside some of my local stores. But really, if you must use pallets break them up and make something clever! I’m going to use pallets to build a backyard platform for my patio furniture, after breaking them up.
