To make the ottoman I needed:
- A bucket of water emulsion (medium size).
- Glue (titanium or moment).
- Scissors.
- Thick foam.
- Needle.
- Fabric (several colors).
- Threads to match the color of the fabric.
First I took the bucket and removed the handle since I didn't need it. I cut a strip of foam rubber of the required length and height, coated the edges with glue and wrapped it around the bucket. Until the glue sets, secure the foam with threads.
Then I cut out a circle from foam rubber, smeared the edges with glue and glued it to the lid of the bucket.
The ottoman is ready. The next step was to sew a cover for it. I cut out a circle of fabric of the required size, taking into account allowances, and a strip of the same size. I sewed the parts together. I sewed an elastic band along the bottom edge of the cover.
On top of the cover I sewed a flower from red fabric and made an orange core.
Then I took an old green curtain with a pattern and cut out leaves from it. I sewed leaves on the sides of the ottoman.Along the edges at the top and bottom I put a figured strip of the same color.
In principle, the ottoman is already ready, but I didn’t like the flower, so I ran a woolen thread along its edge, and also used it on the flower itself.
I hope you liked my ottoman. This is how I made my daughter an original and comfortable ottoman without spending a lot of time or money. And if you take a larger bucket, you can make a similar ottoman for an adult. Goodbye.
