Making My Own Foam Sac (THE HARD WAY)

[@DjosieN]

I have added a STEP BY STEP instruction in the Description. Check it out and Good luck!! ❤

[@gametrue2229]

Maybe use a meat grinder for the pieces? It will ruin the grinder but it wouldnt be an issue if you only use it for styrofoam

[@isabellaorlowski9641]

Josefin Larsson why did you use foam is it like the filling in the lovesac bean bag????

[@gametrue2229]

Sketchy Doggie yes, and probably for comfort too

[@angelovenneman3977]

Hi! Do you have a step by step instruction guide for the big white one? Thank you!

[@susannehaeusler7444]

I love the fact that you have used two different fabrics for the cover. That is something new. Thank you for sharing.

[@japanesemangalover]

I give you props girl. You did it all by HAND. I would have quite halfway and that project would've been sitting arouns for years. You GO GIRL!!

[@Rextrent]

That's an admirable long stretch of hard work. Sometimes it's not just a bottom line that matters. Days are only so long, and some people aren't that strong.

[@robertcandelaria1789]

Holy cow your genius ! I spent over a thousand dollars on mine ! I’m buying one from you next time 🤘🏻

[@nikolmckail3263]

But if you calculate the time to make this (21 hours) at roughly $30/hr, you're in the same realm as buying one.

[@briellestinnett]

Please make another one. I love watching the videos. There's hardly any videos on lovesac diy! Thanks for sharing!

[@thelondon12345]

I straightaway gave you thumbs up, when I saw you cutting those foam pieces. 👍Very beautiful bean bag you have made.

[@cynthiastrait8587]

Omg, fantastic, when I saw you cutting the foam I was like oh hell no. Lol. Luv it!

[@jillruff1655]

Once I saw you cutting up those tiny cubes, I had to pause & hit the like "button." This is tedious & fantastic! Great job! Now I know what to do w my random bed foams left over from college. Ma'am, consider this idea borrowed (stolen). Lol.

[@virish8]

ooooh same for me

[@SuzanneWho]

Would a rotary cutter work on the foam?

[@lennydejefferi]

I like your own sack it looks really comfortable

[@laner.845]

If you have lots of time but not lots of money, this is the way to go. My roommate and I had a massive Love Sac in college back in 2004 before they cost an arm and a leg. I've wanted another one every since.

[@lucylima3623]

Wow your very talented and lots of people would pay you well for these.

Thank you!

AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO WATCHED IN DOUBLE SPEED? 🤩 Awesome!!!!!

[@wesleerivers9695]

Great job on these. You're definitely talented, I have two SuperSac LoveSacs and honestly like the asthetics of yours better.

[@DjosieN]

Weslee Rivers im glad to hear that. Thank you so much! 😊

[@wesleerivers9695]

Josefin Larsson Very welcome ma'am!

[@Errorcode-ik2dg]

I WANT ONE

[@kure08]

so you sunk thousands into overpriced beanbags you don't really like?? if you make over 250k I believe you

[@j0shknXO]

This is what I was searching for...Thanks! but would have been much better if it was shown in normal speed,(at least the cutting & sewing parts) but still appreciate your effort :) Thanks again for making this video

[@jenisminaya1719]

I will NEVER cut all that foam by hand BUT.... great job !!!

[@ashleybeingbored2590]

Woow!!! It looks just like store bought!!!

[@ranjanasalunke3949]

Wow, really very nice 👍, I have these foam sheets, I don't know what to do with them, I definitely use them now. Thanks dear

[@noepachecoortiz3205]

Excelente , quedó muy bien Gracias por mostrar como se hacen

[@karenlei8742]

what are moisture bags? do you mean anti moisture absorption bags moisture absorbing indicating like silica gel packets? can you recommend one and also if any foam will be soft and good? can the same fabric be used as liner (same as the cover itself)

[@phoebebuffay2303]

Hi! Do you know if your foam was standard or high density? I want to make one of these but don't really know wich filler I should buy. How is your bean bag structure now after years of use?

[@aliciadownes5873]

Thanks for sharing! starting to cut up my foam now!

This is awesome but what are the measurements of the larger one and how many foam mattress did you need for the larger one as well. Thanks!

[@DjosieN]

Courtney B i used 12 of the foam mattresdes to the big one :) i will give you the other measurements tomorrow :)

[@DjosieN]

130x100x75cm when the sac was done :)

[@chivechan1233]

Cool AF

[@laffyduck200]

Excellent job! I may have used a blender or law mower to cut up all that foam lol but great job!!

[@mariferglez1351]

what fabric did you use for the top part of the bean bags?

[@KarinBretz-lx6yv]

Fantastic!👍😁

Your hard work is really impressive..!

[@becky1cor154]

Yes wow, I have been wanting to make one u have given me courage to try. I am new at sew.i really enjoy your tutorial.I love challenges. I am going to try it. Any advice? Lol thank you

[@DjosieN]

Try to find shredded foam so you dont have to sit like me, cutting it all by hand :)) Good luck!!

[@beckyrugendo9294]

Fantastic Job!! How many foam mattresses did you use?

[@sionwilliams27]

Hello! regarding the bigger version in the back you wouldn't happen to know the measurements? I want to make a big one like that but I am not sure how to go about it regarding size, any advice.

[@DjosieN]

Yes, i used a twoside-blanket that was 220cmX150cm. So the two circles were ~84 cm in diameter and the cylinder was 95cm in diameters. So the cylinders measurements is 3meters around and 136 cm long. So you are gonna sew the edges of the cylinder (3m) together. If its hard to understand, just look at the picture i posted down in the description but change the measurements. Good luck 😊

[@sionwilliams27]

Alright thank you so much !

[@mathieulefebvre1020]

Hey ! Thanks for the video. Do you have an idea of how many litters does it represent ? Actually, polysteren is a bit expensive 😅. Hard to answer I guess haha sorry

[@NicoleStudios]

I just made one of these foam sacs and it turned out great! I actually just uploaded a video about it, if you want to check it out. Thanks so much for these awesome instructions!

[@manifestasisanubari]

14 hours just to cut all the pieces? That is really the hard way. The bag looks super comfy though

[@BeerkegGarage]

Was all that work worth it?

Do you have the big one instructions? I wanna try to make the huge one

thankyou for video !

I'm sold

[@stoyanstoyanov4598]

Hey, @Josefin Larsson, I would like to ask you what is the difference between the material you use to put inside the beanbag and the EPS material (the small white balls)?

[@DjosieN]

I used simple foam like from a mattress. In other beanbags there are styrofoam balls.

[@stoyanstoyanov4598]

@@DjosieN Actually I saw that some are using memory foam which is incredible. Btw Great job!

[@odetabu7340]

Hi, I live in Norway. Where you bought that foam? Is there any special name for that foam? I am planning to make this sack 😊🥰

[@DjosieN]

At Jysk 😊 i think you have it in Norway aswell! Hobbyfoam

[@bharathjay8506]

Great job. I would like to make it. What is the fabric you used for housing the foam and for the outer layer? How durable is the foam. Do we need to change after a certain period or they remain all along?

[@DjosieN]

Im glad! I used polyether foam to this sac, it was the only option for me here in sweden. Look around what kind of foam that is clean and you can get your hands on. The inner fabric that holds the foam is 100% cotton. I used a plain sheet. The outer fabric is polyester fabric. I dont think you need to change. Just sew them correctly and you should be fine.

[@bharathjay8506]

@@DjosieN Thanks for the info 😀

You used foam mattress or mattress topers? What kind did you use? Where did you get them?

it was ''hobby foam'' We have it in sweden where i live. So i cant tell what options you have, but i just got it in a regular furniture shop.

[@myanmarfurni5590]

Please teacher! which kind of foam do you use? 15d, 30d, 40d?

[@kaylinbillups3822]

How much did all of this stuff cost to make the big one ?

[@DjosieN]

Around 240$ :)

[@HermanQuint]

Grymt! Båda två ser riktigt fina ut :) Vad får den för "konsistens"? Är den ganska fast, eller kan man ändra formen lätt när man sitter iden? Funderar nämligen på att göra en men vet inte om jag ska använda mig av skumgummi eller något annat...

[@DjosieN]

Tack, roligt att höra 😀 Desto mindre den är desto lättare är den att forma just när du ligger i den. Sen brors det på hur stora bitarna är. Den blir inte hård alls när man ligger i den. Jag har sovit i den en hel natt och det har fortfarande känts som jag ligger på ett moln när jag vaknat 😊 sen kan man ju ha olika sorters skumgummi. Som ex. Durafoam som är lite tempur liknande är nog bäst. Eller iaf att ha hälften hälften då den ger bra komfort 😊 Jag testade ha i lite polyester bomull, men det klumpade sig bara och säcken blev svår att ”fluffa upp” så det rekommenderar jag inte att ha i 😊 Lycka till! 😁

[@HermanQuint]

okej, tack så mycket för hjälpen! :)
