Update your uncomfortable old couches or chair cushion.

Repairing your furniture can seem costly and a hassle, the padding that your cat ripped apart or damage from people jumping on it or even just regular wear and tear from being used for years on end. Your favorite couch no longer needs to be thrown away when using something like a sofa foam replacement, which is exactly how it sounds. Foam may seem uncomfortable when you first think about it, but given a chance it is not only soft but durable and able to hold up to some pretty heavy situations, which also makes it great for chair cushions and backings.

If you are a DIY person than it’s easy to replace your furniture’s guts when you use foam replacements, as it comes in all shapes and sizes but most commonly you’ll measure your per-existing chair or couch to find the measurements that you want inside of your furniture. Most couches already have an amount of foam in them and many even have easy to use zippers that you can replace the inserts easily, others will require a bit of craft or sewing to fix up entirely, though the cost will still be much more affordable to do it yourself than to replace your couch entirely.
