Don’t pass up those old table linens just yet. Here are 10 clever ways to reuse them

7. Upcycle Embroidered Corners Into Wall Art

Many old table linens feature beautiful embroidered corners that can be highlighted as wall art. Cut out the embroidered section, leaving a margin of fabric around the edge. Stretch the fabric over a canvas frame or embroidery hoop, and secure it in place. This simple project transforms delicate embroidery into a decorative piece that can add a touch of vintage flair to any room.
8. Craft Aprons and Kitchen Accessories

Old tablecloths, especially those with durable fabrics, can be repurposed into aprons and other kitchen accessories. Cut a piece of fabric large enough to cover your front from chest to knee, usually about 24 x 36 inches. Add ties and a neck loop made from the same or coordinating fabric. You can also make matching pot holders or oven mitts by layering fabric with heat-resistant padding and sewing around the edges.
