Ivory Furlicious Faux-Fur Beanbags Scroll to Previous Item Scroll to Next Item Ivory Furlicious Faux-Fur Beanbags A plush slipcover makes this beanbag the softest seat in the house. Our superior-quality faux fur is as indulgent as it is beautiful. It's exceptionally woven from the finest materials for a sumptuously plush feel, and beautifully emulates the inherent softness of genuine fur. Plush beanbag inserts are filled with up to 50% recycled polystyrene. Faux fur slipcover is made from an 85% acrylic and 15% polyester blend. Recycled fill may contain a mix of dark and light beads within the insert. This is perfectly normal and safe. The zippers on the beanbag inserts have been sealed to protect the fill and ensure lasting quality. For best use, insert and slipcover seams should both run vertically; horizontal seams can make the bag appear flat. Furry acrylic, polyester blend slipcover is removable for cleaning. Inserts are not intended for use without a slipcover.

Slipcover and insert are available individually or as a set. Fill: 7.5 cubic feet Fill: 13.5 cubic feet Spot clean with damp white cloth, blot to remove excess water. Do not wash or dry clean. Slipcover + Beanbag InsertBean Bag Chair — A Storage Solution (stuffed animals, extra pillows & blankets) There will definitely be a theme of “the dissertation is done, so Debbie is starting to play ‘catch-up’ with projects” with my upcoming posts.  It has been so nice to sew/cook/craft again.  Not that I worked on the dissertation/school work ALL of the time, but I found myself feeling so guilty about doing anything else, that instead, I would just sit and do nothing or web-surf looking for new projects that I didn’t have time to do! A while ago, Jen came across in a catalog this creative way to store stuffed animals.  Did she order a couple? Oh no, she said, “I bet Mom could make those a lot cheaper!” (I think they were about $75 in this speciality catalog). 

I did manage to make one for Little S (who had the stuffed-animals-reaching-the-point-of-room-takeover situation going on!) and she received it for her birthday over a year ago. chair tie backs for sale zaBoth of the girls loved the project and requested I make them for the rest of the “grands” — I bought the fabric, even cut it out, but didn’t get them made until just in time for this Christmas.  chair to rent in a salonAnd, they were a hit!white rocking chair outdoor This “storage solution” would also work great for a dorm room or small apartment (to store extra linens, winter jackets, etc.).pink office chair philippines

Cut out the fabric pieces according to the pattern directions.  Begin sewing pieces together, again, according to the pattern directions; however, instead of just a simple seam between two of the pieces, insert the zipper. For the piece which will be opposite where the zipper has been inserted, cut out some of the heavy fabric and insert a “window” of the mesh fabric.  In the “sample” Jen found in the catalog, this window was made of vinyl … so that was how I made the first bean bag — not a good idea!  Little S almost immediately zipped herself (we should have known!) into the bag and couldn’t get out.  Luckily, a little friend was over playing and we were alerted to her predicament!  So, before making anymore, I did a bit of fabric “research” and came up with the mesh idea.  If you’re making one of these for an older child or teen, or even a young adult, the “window” isn’t really necessary — mainly just allows for the furry friends to be remembered!

Continue to follow pattern directions to complete the “bean bag chair”, simply using your “modified” panels. Since these “chairs” are likely to get heavy use (Little S drags hers all over the house so she can sit wherever the action is happening!), I double stitched all seams and top-stitched through the seam allowances which I pressed to one side.For lounging in front of the television or curling up to read a book, use this comfortable bean-bag chair. Although the name implies that the bag is filled with beans, it’s actually filled with polystyrene pellets, making the chair light-weight and moldable. It’s easy to make either a child-size or adult-size bean-bag chair. For added durability, the bean-bag chair consists of a muslin inner lining that holds the pellets, and an outer cover. The inner lining is zippered for convenience in filling the bag. The outer cover is also zippered, making it easy to remove for laundering or dry cleaning. For the outer cover, select a medium-weight fabric, such as wide-wale corduroy, denim, canvas, or upholstery fabric.

Using the pattern, make a side pattern piece for the size of bean-bag chair you wish to make (adult or child). The pattern is provided on a grid that is scaled: one square on the grid is equal to 1 square inch (2.5 square cm). To make a full-size pattern, place tracing paper over a 1” (2.5cm) grid, such as a cutting board; or make a grid by drawing lines 1” (2.5cm) apart. Then, using the scaled pattern for reference, draw the outer (cutting) line of the pattern. Note: The adult-size chair is approximately 41-1/2” (105.4cm) long and 21” (53.3cm) wide at the longest and widest points. The child-size chair is approximately 34” (86.4cm) long and 16” (40.6cm) wide at the longest and widest points. To make a pattern for the top of the bean-bag chair, fold a piece of paper in half; mark a point approximately half-way down the folded edge. Using a ruler and pencil, draw an arc measuring 5-1/2” (14cm) from this point for the adult-size chair, or 4-1/2” (11.5cm) for the child-size chair.

Hint: keep the end of the ruler at the point marked at the fold, and pivot the ruler in an arc while marking at the measurement indicated above. To make a pattern for the bottom of the bean-bag chair, fold paper in half as in Step 2, and make an arc measuring 12” (30.5cm) from the marked point for the adult-size chair, and 10” (25.5cm) from the marked point for the child-size chair. Unfold the paper and mark a line 1/2” (1.3cm) on one side of the fold. Cut along this line and discard the smaller side of the circle. The remaining piece is the pattern for the bottom of the chair.
