You just cut your sheets into strips and then crochet them into these amazing floor pillows. And, you don’t need to be an expert in crochet to do these – they’re really simple! You have to love free crochet patterns!

Repurposed Fabric Floor Cushion

These floor cushions can be made from repurposed fabric. This is a great project if you need ideas for using up scrap material.

This is an easy cushion to make and it’s huge when it’s finished, depending of course on just how big you want to make it. This is a sewing project but it’s a really simple one and you can customize exactly how it looks by choosing different fabrics.

3. DIY Kids’ Floor Cushion

DIY Kids’ Floor Cushion

Little ones will absolutely love this DIY kid sized floor cushion. They can use these in their bedrooms or in the living room or family room.

Experience tells me that kids would much rather sit in the floor than on the furniture, so these easy DIY cushions are perfect for that.

You can even make them with stain proof fabric or something that has an indoor outdoor quality to keep stains to a minimum.

4. Cute DIY Button Pillow

Cute DIY Button Pillow

Turn that scrap fabric, or an old sheet or a yard of fabric, into an adorable little button pillow. This one is rather small but you could easily adjust the fabric to make it large enough for a floor cushion.

The pattern calls for three quarters of a yard of fabric, so just double that to make the cushion a bit larger and cut your pattern accordingly. This one is so easy and so adorable when it is finished.

5. DIY Crocheted Floor Cushions

DIY Crocheted Floor Cushions

Turn a couple of skeins of yarn into these adorable crocheted floor cushions. These are pretty simple to make, even if you don’t crochet a lot or are just beginning.

You can use these as footstools or as extra seating.

They’re really tall so they are perfect for putting your feet up and relaxing, and you don’t need to know any fancy or complicated crochet stitches to make them.

6. DIY Outdoor Floor Cushions

DIY Outdoor Floor Cushions

You can make a couple of cushions for your patio furniture and a matching floor cushion with just a couple of yards of outdoor fabric.

These are really simple and they are perfect for relaxing out on the patio when the weather permits. Plus, since you make them with outdoor fabric, there are no worries of weather or stains on your new cushions.

7. Linen Floor Pouf With Handle

Linen Floor Pouf With Handle

How great would a floor cushion with a handle be? You can carry it wherever you want to take it. Imagine a soft cushion for your kids’ ballgames or even something that you can easily tote indoors and out.

This one is so simple…you just add a handle to your square floor cushion. I found this one on Etsy for around $60, but you could easily DIY this one with a square cushion pattern and some extra fabric for the handle.

8. IKEA Hack Floor Pouf

IKEA Hack Floor Pouf

I love these huge floor poufs, and you can make this one for less than $10! You make it from an IKEA floor mat – well, three of them actually and they only cost around $3 each.

It does require sewing but you don’t need to be a sewing expert by any means.

Huge DIY Folding Floor Cushion

Here is a fabulously large folding floor cushion that is perfect for relaxing on the floor or even as an extra bed for sleepovers. This one is super simple to make and you only need about two yards of fabric to make it.

When you aren’t using it, it folds up so that you can easily store it away wherever you have a little bit of closet space. Here’s a little tip – make it out of outdoor fabric and it’s perfect for laying outside and catching some sun!

10. Repurposed Blanket Floor Cushion

Repurposed Blanket Floor Cushion

An old blanket can be easily repurposed to make a nice big floor cushion for relaxing or extra seating. You can use thick fabric for this, as well if you don’t have an old blanket to use or if you have some old thick curtains, you could also use those.

This one is pretty simple and it’s really comfortable. You need a bit of sewing for this one, but nothing too complicated.

11. Easy DIY Boxed Floor Cushion

Easy DIY Boxed Floor Cushion

This squared floor cushion is perfect as a pet bed or you could use it as seating when you have a house full of people.

You could also do this one in an indoor outdoor fabric and make extra seating for on your patio or in the backyard. These are super easy to sew together and you can do them in any number of sizes, from large to gigantic!

Tutorial: designsponge

12. Giant Girard Floor Cushion

Giant Girard Floor Cushion

This giant Girard floor cushion is as fun as it is comfortable. You can make this one easily even if you don’t sew a lot in general. You use felt and black embroidery thread to create the whimsical face.

Kids, teenagers especially, are going to love this one and it’s a really quick one to make, even with the customization. This would be a great gift for your graduate who is heading off to college – it’s a fun dorm room cushion!

You just need enough fabric to cut out two circles of the same size – 18 inches or larger – and then the thread to sew them together.

This one is so easy and you can hand sew it if you don’t have a sewing machine. You can have one of these made in about an hour or so.

These DIY jelly roll pillows are perfect for living rooms, bedrooms or the patio. They are much easier to make than you may think and they are so much fun to look at.

You need about three yards of fabric altogether, counting the pillow and the piping, and your basic sewing supplies.

These are so easy – you can have one finished in about an hour or so and they are so fluffy and comfortable when you get them finished.

16. West Elm Inspired Giant Floor Pouf

West Elm Inspired Giant Floor Pouf

This giant floor pouf is inspired by West Elm, but it’s a lot cheaper to make than to buy. These things will run you more than $100 if you buy them from West Elm but you can make one for under $20.

You just need the fabric and the stuffing and a couple of hours to put it all together. This is huge when it’s finished – huge enough to act as a seat if you need extra seating.
