Opulent Ottoman Pouf Featuring Faux Fur and Elegant Ambiance
In this article, we'll guide you through the process of creating a stylish and comfortable faux fur ottoman pouf with a high-density foam core.
Preparing the High-Density Foam Core
- Obtain a block or several pieces of high-density foam cut to the desired pouf size and shape. If your ottoman is composed of smaller sections, glue them together using spray adhesive. The high-density foam serves as a firm and durable structure suitable for sitting.
Creating the Faux Fur Pouf Cover
- Measure and cut your faux fur fabric to fit over the foam core with some extra allowance for seams and ease. Sew the fabric into a cover that fits snugly around the foam, typically with a box-shaped or cylindrical pouf pattern. This can include sewing pieces for top, bottom, and side panels.
- Add a zipper or Velcro closure on one side to allow insertion and removal of the foam core, facilitating cover washing or foam replacement.
Assembling the Pouf
- Insert the foam core into the sewn faux fur cover. Close the zipper or fastener securely.
Optional Details
- You can add piping or decorative stitching to create a polished look.
- Stuff gaps or improve the plushness by adding a fiberfill layer between the foam and cover if desired.
Putting it All Together
- Create a cube shape by folding over the bottom edge of the faux fur cover and sewing it together.
- Cover the foam cube by sliding the faux fur cube over it. Clips or straight pins are used to hold the faux fur and dark fabric in place during the sewing process.
- An electric knife is recommended for cutting the foam. Clip and tuck fur into the seam before sewing.
This method allows customization of the inner core, as unstuffed faux fur pouf covers are available for DIY stuffing with foam or materials like clothes and pillows. High-density foam is ideal because it supports sitting and retains shape.
