Whether made of natural wool or recycled PET, the felt used for these chairs provides a soft, cushioned place for your posterior to plant itself, and what could be bad about that?

What do you know. I already found a brand new wool chair today. It’s made for small spaces and is both cute and multifunctional. http://www.yankodesign.com/2011/05/11/the-perfect-small-apartment-chair/
