Severed Ties

Your company went casual years ago, but those old ties are still taking up valuable space in your closet. Here's a practical and stylish solution: Send them off to Speezak Quilt Studio in Park Slope, where the resident sewing experts will turn those noose-like things into comfy cushions. It will take seven of your luckiest (or most outlandishly patterned) ties to make a 12-inch square pillow ($150).

Speezak Quilt Studio
425 Fifth Ave., between 8th and 9th Sts., Brooklyn
