Attention football fans: Reserve the best seat in the house with this homemade pad, or bring it to the stadium for a more comfy spot in the bleachers.
What you'll need
- Scissors
- 1/2 yard of brown vinyl
- 12- by 20-inch piece of 1-inch-thick high-density foam (available at fabric stores)
- Hot glue
- Clothespins
- 2 yards of 1/2-inch-thick white twill tape
How to make it
Cut two 22- by 14-inch football shapes from the vinyl. Then cut out a foam football that's an inch smaller all around and sandwich it between the vinyl pieces.
Hot-glue the vinyl edges together, using clothespins to hold them in place while the glue dries.
Glue on pieces of twill tape for laces, as shown.
