Wondering How To Make A Pouffe ?

A few people have emailed in wondering how to make a pouffe which others call footstools and yet others call footrests.

Step 1 The first thing you want to do is take your pouffe out of the box to get rid of any of the residual air. Also get rid of the wrinkles and folds as well in order to ensure that the pouffe has no crease left in it.

Step 2 You need to work out what the filling is that you are going to put in the pouffe. Ideas can range from old grocery bags to polystyrene filler to my own favourite which is regular beans which you can get from any bean bag stor.

Step 3. A very critical step when stuffing your pouffe is to make sure that the zip and seams are in working condition. What I mean by this is that you dont want to go to all the effort of stuffinga  pouffe only to find out and hour later that the beans have spilt out all over the floor. the time you will have to spend in cleaning this up just isnt worth it so it is best to get it right 1st time around.

Step 4. Work out whether you want a lot of beans or just a few. It depends on teh confort level you want to experience. If it is packed too tight then you want have a lot of give.

Step 5 Ensure that you smooth out the beans in the pouffes so it the beans in teh pouffe are evenly distributed everywhere.

Step 6 Finally sew the pouffe up or else zip it up tightly. thsi should ensure that no beans fall out.
