Bean Bags!

Presently, we have four bean bag chairs that I am thinking of consolidating to look something like this ain’t that a bad boy.

I figure that by doing this design it could be used as a porta bed for the kids, a pillow and assortment of other things as well. And store better than the gelitanous blobs that are bean bags.
However, those little beady foamy things inside of bean bags are a Basic Nightmare to work with and transfer from the old to the new. I was thinking of just offloading what we have to a resale shop.

But, do you think I could use packing peanuts or something similar for a lighter bag?

You can use packing chips, but it won’t flow or mould to your shape like a regular beanbag. If you do this anyway, make sure they aren’t the biodegradable ones made of corn starch.

Don’t use packing peanuts. I tried refilling my deflated beanbag with them. Not comfy at all. I’ll be watching this thread for suggestions, though, since my dream is to one day create a giant sculpted bean bag: Jabba the Couch

shredded sofa cushion,
go to your local JoAnn fabrics and ask them, they should have them by the bag, they’re more expenisive, but they neer deflate, even after six grown adults have used it for over a day straight, just give it some room maybe a bit of a fluff and it will be like new.

this is the material they use in Foof’s or Love Sacks, those are both product names search them and you’ll see
