A bean bag chair is simply a large piece of fabric filled with beans. Because they are versatile, durable, comfortable and easy to clean we are seeing them becoming very popular again. Even doctors recommend them for their ergonomic qualities.
They are great for kids, adults, and dogs and work great in small spaces. And now you can make your own with this awesome FREE pattern.
