Don’t be selfish . . .
I have seen where other bloggers have purchased bean bag covers from Bed Bath and Beyond or The Pottery Barn for a reasonable price and used them to store their kids stuffed animals. But I am CHEEP!
My daughter is a social little critter. This results in all her toys being drug out into the great room. I have been trying different methods of attractively storing her toys but few have worked out, or been durable enough to last.
I have A LOT of scrap fabric. She has a lot of stuffed animals. They went together nicely… and so far the solution has worked.
Buy a long zipper. Mine is 24 inches. Gather your scrape material and lay it out in a way that you can get an idea for how big your bag will be. My scrapes were not enough to make the size bag I wanted so I added in simple muslin.
Sew the shape you want. I wanted a cube because sphere bean bags are too common. Sew the zipper in along one of the seams.
Next stuff all those cute little critters in it.
