The Best Summer Purchase Ever

August 29th, 2010 by admin

Ah the things I love most about summer can be counted on one hand, but they are all fantastic, and inexpensive. Personally, I believe homemade iced tea is unbeatable. It is refreshing and tasty. Then, there is the lazy day spent on the beach. I am lucky enough to be within an hours drive to a beach. So, all that costs me is the gas I use to get to and fro. In addition, my beloved bike that I got from a charity shop holds my heart. Though it may get blisteringly hot, when I jump on the bike I get the benefit of a breeze from the motion I propel. Finally, the bean bag chairs I bought last summer are the greatest spontaneous investment I have ever made. Initially, I intended to use the funky bean bags intermittently in the garden. However, they not only get used every single week in the summer, I also use them indoors during the winter.

New Fans For An Updated Style of Furniture

August 25th, 2010 by admin

I just love it when something from product heaven returns to us better than ever. What I mean is, I think it is fabulous when things are given a new lease on life. For example, bean bags ruled for a good long stint in the 60s and 70s. Then they basically were banished to furniture purgatory or something similar. Fast forward to modern day, and the remodeled, rethought, retooled bean bag has hit the scene again.

Sure, there are always going to be those who loved an item the first go round so much that they buy the latest version. But, in this instance, the furniture spoke to legions of people who had never been drawn to bean bags, and to others who were not even on this planet yet for the first run. The bitchin bean bags of yesterday have become the more fabulous funky bean bags of today.

Next thing I want to investigate is the new and improved versions of the good old Slip and Slide. I have no doubt that I will not be disappointed with that either.

The Bean Bag Goes Even Further

August 16th, 2010 by admin

Seems like bean bags are falling from the sky. Their popularity has taken flight and they are landing on sandy beaches, flourishing garden floors, and other places people find to relax out of doors. They are peppering our countryside, and cityscape from end to end.

Of course there are many variations, some below high quality standards, and others that are reaching new standard heights. As fun as it is to jump on this bean filled bandwagon, buyer beware. If you purchase at the bottom of the totem pole in this case, you will undoubtedly find yourself unsatisfied with your seats. However, if you stick with the gold standard choice then your expectations will not only be met, but surpassed. Check out the selection on the Funky Bean Bags site to find the crème de la crème bean chairs.

How to Make the Most of Your Summer

August 8th, 2010 by admin

Before it is too late, set aside some time to relax in your summer garden. Time spent lounging on a fluffy bean bag, with a good book and a cool drink are priceless. Pretty soon we will all be wrapped up in the hustle and bustle of life, and winter clothes. But there is still time to enjoy the great month of August, but you have to make it happen.

A nice slow paced Sunday involving half an hour of tending to the garden, then alternated with half an hour of recovery on some funky bean bags will leave you in a happy place. The only thing you will have to decide is what to sip on, and which way to angle the parasol.

These days will soon be a memory, and what it takes to get you through the predicted harsh winter. Though you will not have to part with your bean bag, because you will want to bring it inside, you will be separated from the warm fresh air, the colourful landscape, and long days. So stop dawdling, make it happen.

July 31st, 2010 by admin

There are so many types of outdoor furniture to choose from, including teak, wicker, aluminium, plastic, and the list goes on and on. Still, rarely do you hear about cloth bean bag chairs. I have to wonder why this is considering that it is comfortable, washable, and exudes stylish texture. In addition, another pro to selecting these bean filled seats is that they generally cost a lot less than the competition. How these have flown under the wire without becoming too popular, I do not know, or even care for that matter. This to me just makes them even sweeter. So, if anyone were to ask me what I recommend for outdoor furniture, and I liked them,I would start in on the qualities of funky bean bags because to me they are a super secret.

How to Easily Create a Colourful Garden

July 29th, 2010 by admin

When you think of a colourful garden, more likely than not what you imagine are glorious flowers. And while they often constitute a large portion of the colour in this area, there are other wonderful ways to bring in some additional great shades. One of my favourite ways to liven up an outdoor space is with some funky bean bags.

In recent years some wonderful designers have created outdoor bean furniture collections that will knock your socks off. They have worked with durable, yet stylish materials that inject pizzaza into a garden, pool area, balcony, or even a dock.  Since they are no longer abstract shapes, the defined lines work wonders when placed on grass, decking or any other base.

In sum, this is a very effective way to boost the colour scheme in your outdoor space without having to dedicate hours to pruning, planting or watering. Not to mention, these bean bags can be used indoors too during cold months. So, pretty good investment all around.

The Best Furniture That You May Not Even Know About

July 16th, 2010 by admin

When looking for furniture, sometimes people overlook the potential of funky bean bags. The word is still being spread about the way modern bean bags have undergone a major transformation, and that the results are nothing less than astounding. But, it is a real shame for them not to be on the list of possibilities, considering they provide consumers with a lot of bang for their buck.

To get an attractive, comfortable chair, couch or ottoman for such reasonable prices is virtually unheard of. To put it bluntly, the quality normally is unacceptable. However, with bean furniture, the seats not only work, but they work well in just about all designs. It is only a matter of time until they are so mainstream that they are no longer overlooked. Until that moment in time, those that have the knowledge will continue to benefit from the contemporary bean bag collections.

Funky bean bags can aid you in transitioning a space from dull to dazzling. The designer bean bags can bring the necessary pop to a bland décor in a flash. No other single piece of furniture comes to mind that can bring such high impact to a room, and fall within a reasonable price. To get both grand comfort and a strong visual presence, and all for a low cost is exceptional. So it is no wonder that bean bags continue to remain a favourite of both quick fix design gurus, and those who painstakingly select furniture of all price ranges. It is nice to know that not everything has to be outrageously pricey to produce wonderful flair. Huh, I wonder if anyone has considered making the bean bag the official chair of the UK.

The Furniture Purchase That Has Made Me Happiest

July 11th, 2010 by admin

Recently I have noticed how much I have come to rely on my bean bags. When my wife and I purchased them a couple of years ago we were not 100 percent sure we were making the right choice. We pondered whether or not something more traditional would be the wiser choice. Neither of us had ever had bean bag furniture, but we both liked the way the designer seats looked, and the price was right too. Since then, I have taken hundreds of lazy Sunday afternoon naps on the chairs. I have also sat ever so comfortably on them while watching endless hours of Strictly Come Dancing, Law and Order and the World Cup. Plus, whenever I have a cold, there is nowhere I would rather recover than on my funky bean bags. They have been a purchase that I am extremely happy to have made.
