    Now I really like this idea, it combines luxury with chill-time. Strangely enough I saw bags of bean bag filling in Wilko the other week yet this idea never occurred to me.

    Those wilko bean bag fillings are pretty good. I sewed some into a £1 duvet cover from a charity shop, then stuffed that into a bean bag cover knocked together with some spare fabric (also charity shop, maroon laura Ashley nutmeg, 10 metres for £6!), makes it way easier to wash the cover without spilling beans.

    lots of great ideas there.
    my initial thought was a table runner and matching napkins etc, but then I don't know how often you use a proper dining table.
    are they washable? they could make a nice picnic blanket, if not thick you can line them with an old blanket.
    could they not be altered to fit new windows?
