How to do it

1 Cut six pieces of faux leather paper and six pieces of linen, all measuring 50 x 50 cm. Be very accurate with the measurements and make sure that all the pieces are perpendicular.

2 Sew the linen pieces together to form a cube, but leave a 15 cm opening in one side. Turn inside out.

3 Place the faux leather paper in a bucket or bowl of water. Take it out and leave it to dry. Now the paper is softer and easier to work with, and you achieve a rustic look.

4 Sew the pieces of faux leather paper together, outer side against other side on the sewing machine. Secure the pieces with mini clothes pegs. Sew with a No. 4 stitch length. Always finish 1 cm from the edge. Make sure not to use stitches that are too small when securing the ends, sewing backwards, because this may perforate the paper which will cause it to break. Sew the pieces together to form a tube with the seams on the outside. Sew the last two pieces together at the ends, and the last piece only on three sides.

5 Place the linen bag inside the pouffe. Make sure that it fits in all the corners. Push a card tube into the bag with the polystyrene pellets and secure itwith masking tape. Fill the linen inner liner with polystyrene pellets through the hole. Shake to distribute the pellets. Use the entire 100 l pellets for this size pouffe.
