Upholstry cushions


I shopped around a lot for foam...and think I found the best place. Ikea. They sell foam mattresses. I needed a 3/4 mattress. So, I bought a full and will just cut of the excess. I decided to get a single mattress to make the dinette cushions. The foam is nice quality.


Ticking: 73 % cotton, 27 % polyesterFire-retardant interliner: 100 % cottonComfort material: Highly resilient polyurethane foam (cold foam) 35 kg/cu.m., Polyester filling, Polyester filling.


The cover zips...so I can easily take the foam out and cut the mattress down to a 3/4 size.

added note...foam cuts like a dream with an electric knife. I cut the full down to size and just put it back into its cover...perfect.
