The Ultimate SWAP MEET

Right now until March 11th on Blu Dot, you can barter for modern furniture.
That's right, make a trade.
It's easy, you can upload pics or videos of something you created or collected, and see if Blu Dot will swap furniture for your goods.

Har Mar Superstar explains/pimps the Blu Dot Swap Meet. from Blu Dot on Vimeo.

Leave it to those cold weather dwellers to come up with an idea like this!
Check out what people have put up and swapped.

Sock Monkey Chair

Swap for a Herman Miller Cognita Bench

By Rebecca Yaker, Minneapolis

I made this chair to blow the minds of the judges at the Minnesota State Fair. Mission accomplished - minds were blown. So much so that I was banned from participating in the Creative Activities Competition. I offer you the chair that started the madness! The chair itself is a vintage piece which I purchased on the famed 100 mile garage sale, completely gutted and re-constructed, inside and out. I knit all the fabric for the chair. Let the monkey envelope you in his comfy, springy, bounciness, complete with a 36" tail.
