Bean bags are a great choice when it comes to decorating a room. One can use them as a part of game section of the room with small cushions on couches or even pillows. Though most of the time people buy bean bags, it can be a fun idea to make them yourselves at home. This is a simple task and can be performed with some basic raw material. When the supplies are ready, determine the shape of the bean bags to be made. With the help of the ruler or measuring tape, and the pencil, mark the fabric and cut the piece to be used for the bag. Cut the muslin in the same shape as the fabric, making sure that it is half an inch smaller than the main fabric. The muslin should be smaller than the main fabric as it will store the filling and will also act as a liner to the main fabric. Sew 3/4th of the fabric and the muslin separately making sure that the edges are smooth while sewing. After sewing is complete, turn the partly sewn material inside out. Fill the muslin bag with the desired amount of beans. Remember not to fill the bean bags too much or leave it too lean. After filling up the beans, sew the muslin bag so that the beans can not come out. Try and make the stitches clean even though they will not be seen. Once the muslin drawstring bags is secure, slide it into the outer shell. All that you need are the necessary materials and a little skill in sewing. Making a bean bag is all about completing a sewing project that will have a durable bean bag as a result. Young children should have the attention of an adult if they wish to make their own bean bags and while they are handling scissors or needles.
