I’ve always wanted to throw an ugly sweater party.
Scour the thrift shop for cast off misfit sweaters that nobody wants.
But there are so many more fun ways to reuse old sweaters.
Why not take those abandoned sweaters and turn them into some of the coolest sweater crafts for house & wardrobe.
Christmas
Even someone as seriously sewing challenged as me might just be able to make this adorable embroidery hoop sweater from The Lily Pad Cottage.
All that’s missing from these cute sweater snowman from Domestically Speaking are the corn cob pipes.
These sweater Christmas trees from Sweater Surgery have a very Seussical look.
Boxwood Clippings made sweater gift wrap tied up with a bow.
Sweater ornaments from A Nest for All Seasons have me as happy as a jolly old elf.
Home
This sweater lampshade from Unskinny Boppy really lights up my life.
Sweater vases from By Stephanie Lynn are cozy and cute.
The cuteness factor of these sweater planters is beyond measure – from Duo Fiberworks.
What’s better than the gift of wine? The gift of wine wrapped up in a cute sweater wine bottle gift bag from Oh My Creative.
Santa will hurry down the chimney to get his hands on these sweater pillows that The Everyday Home stitched together.
Wear
I love how Just Another Day in Paradise turned a thrift shop cast off into a chic sweater scarf with pom poms.
I love the pom poms that Fashion Blog added to this adorable sweater skirt.
Could these sweater leg warmers from Make & Do Girl be any cuter.
World’s cutest sweater cowl neck made by Stuff Steph Does had me at hello.
Every girl needs statement jewelry like these sweater bangles from A Bit of Sunshine.
Way cuter than earmuffs is this sweater head wrap from Flamingo Toes.
So head on out to the nearest thrift shop and scoop up all the sweaters you can load into your cart.
I believe that creating simple projects = more time for margaritas!
P.S. Join me – I’ll be sharing a favorite room – the kitchen – all gussied up Christmas.

I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to throw away or donate another sweater again. What a great and inspiring list.
I have never crafted with sweaters but now I’m totally inspired 😉
Now THOSE are some brilliant ideas! I’m loving that sweater lamp shade! Time to hit the thrift store for some old sweaters. 🙂
