Project | Bean Bag Chair

Gina and I were laughing a lot (and also complaining about aching backs and cramped hands) while we attempted to fill this mammoth bean bag chair. Worth the effort though, this is so cool! And really comfy, too. My boys will inherit this after the show.

We found a place that sells recycled filler, which is really nice, because there just isn't that much option out there. What's also nice is it's completely reusable (providing grape juice doesn't spill throughout) and would be great for stuffing pillows and toys.

I always think of bean bags as a disaster waiting to happen (sort of like water beds). Reinforce those seams! A lining would be even better (20/20 hindsight).
