After seeing many DIY Tufted Ottomans on several blogs, I decided it was time I tried! I've always wanted a large ottoman but they're rather pricey. This cost me about $50! I got the table off Craigslist for $10. The top was not in great shape but the table was sturdy and that's all that matters. I initially bought foam from Jo-Ann Fabrics but it was incredibly expensive. I then had an idea! What if I bought a foam mattress topper off Amazon? Maybe it would be cheaper...

| Well, it definitely was cheaper. 2" foam from Jo-Ann Fabrics is $40/yard! I got a twin size mattress topper (2") off Amazon for $30! That even leaves me some extra foam for other projects |
Here is the table before
I spray-painted the legs and base black and that's about it.
This is one of the tutorials I used. I even made the buttons myself! I think because I have a patterned fabric, it's harder to see the buttons creating the tufting. They look great in person, though!
