DIY Burlap Coffee Bean Sack Ottoman

3 Materials

Are you enchanted by the rustic beauty of burlap coffee bags? Seating, side table, and storage 3-in-1, this up-cycled burlap coffee bag ottoman requires only one bag, minimal stitching (you know I can’t sew, right? ) and can be made in no time!

As the seasons change, stuff it with out-of-season clothing, blankets, etc. No need to buy foam!

Start with one standard 28″ x 40″ Burlap Coffee Bean Bag. You can get it online or at your local coffee roaster.

Remove the stitches from the bottom and the side of the bag. Now they open up to a sheet of 56″x40″.

Cut into 6 pieces, and iron each piece to about 18.5″by 18.5″ by folding the edges.

Stitch all sides except for one. Add some pretty tassels! Stuff it with out-of-season clothing, blankets, etc. You can add Velcro to close the opening, or use my lazy method of folding the extra burlap under the bottom of the stuffed ottoman.

Check out below for more details on how to stitch step by step, or how to make super cute and easy tassels!
