Second manufacturing method

It is not necessary to sheathe the ottoman from the outside - just place an old pillow inside.

Materials and tools:

  • used car tires;
  • foam rubber;
  • thick fabric or mesh;
  • fabric for decoration;
  • fringe, lace;
  • strong threads, needles;
  • sewing machine;
  • self-tapping screws.

We make an ottoman with our own hands. First you need to prepare the tires. If tires were previously used for a car, you must first rinse them with water, remove dust and clay residues with a brush and washing powder.

Nadi make an ottoman that has the height of a regular stool. To do this, put 2 tires (one on top of the other) and connect them with electrical tape.

You can screw the tires to one another with self-tapping screws on their inner surface... The wheels must be firmly connected to each other, thus creating a sufficiently strong frame for the product.

We carry out the seat. It is necessary to measure the diameter of the tire hole and cut a circle of the same diameter from the foam rubber. On the sides, the frame of the future product must be sheathed with foam rubber, then the ottoman will become soft and have a streamlined shape.

To do this, a rectangle must be cut out of the foam rubber. One side of the rectangle is equal to the height of the product frame, the other side is equal to the circumference of the frame. It is necessary to wrap the frame with foam rubber and sew its ends with a strong thread.

Then close the hole with foam rubber. To do this, first you need to sew up the upper and lower holes with a strong cloth or a special mesh, then attach the foam rubber on top of it.

The final step is to create the upholstery. For this, it is better to use dense furniture fabric. Cut a rectangle out of this fabric. Its short side is equal to the height of the walls of the ottoman plus a twist width of 10 cm on each side.

The long side of the ottoman is equal to the outer diameter of the wheel plus one cm per line. Sew the 2 short sides of the fabric upholstery and pull it over the wheels. The line is best done on sewing machine... It is better to make a double seam.

The frame of the product is covered with fabric. Now you need to finish and fasten the upper and lower parts of the model together. Using a strong thread and a needle on the inner side of the wheels, we fasten the structure. To do this, thread a thread from the top edge, then pull it inside and pull it out from the bottom edge.

This stretches the fabric. After complete stitching, you can put a soft pad on top. The trim can be supplemented with fringe, applique, embroidery, lace. When creating a model design, apply all your imagination and creative possibilities.

You don't have to pay money to create a cozy home. You can make beautiful things from scrap materials. For example, make an ottoman out of old car tires. It does not require much effort and time, but the product will delight you for many years. The pouf will come in handy in the country, in the apartment or in the garage.

Plywood is cut to fit the diameter of the tire. You can use a jigsaw to cut the edges if you wish. Lay down polyurethane foam on top and fix it with glue (when used, the polyurethane foam will not slide to the edges).

For aesthetics, a cover for the cover is made of fabric. The pattern is simple: we measure the height of the resulting seat and the diameter. We cut out two circles and a tape from the material (the width will be equal to the height, the length - to the diameter). Sew the circles with the tape on a typewriter, leaving room for the zipper. We put on the seat cover.

TIP: You can simply cover the lid with a cloth and secure with a stapler. It is recommended to cover the back of the top of the ottoman with a non-woven fabric.

The tires are fastened together. The holes are made with a drill, you can fasten them with bolts or wire. For beauty it is advised to sheathe rubber with fabric.

  1. First of all, we cut a sheet of our plywood based on the contour of our tire and make a sheet round shape, after that we drill holes in the tire and plywood to secure and connect the tire and plywood.

  2. Further, using self-tapping screws or bolts, but keep in mind that when fastening the elements with bolts, you will need to make holes for the bolt heads so that they do not stick out from under the plywood cover. We attach the plywood sheet to the tire.

    By the way, please note that the plywood sheet is attached on both sides. to the bottom of our ottoman, we will attach roller legs, which will move our ottoman on wheels.

  3. We begin to glue our twine to the tire, it is necessary to start from the middle and lay the twine in the shape of a snail, which contributes to a rather beautiful pattern.

  4. You need to glue on strong glue, we recommend using glue in a special gun, but if you do not have such a tool, then glue - "Moment" will do, but note that it must be very sticky !.

  5. Further, when the lid of our ottoman is glued with twine, we begin to glue the twine directly onto the tire itself.

  6. To make the rope fit better on the tire, we need to turn the tire up and down, which will facilitate easier fastening of the rope.

  7. Next, we glue the tires completely, and cut off the excess twine and glue it on the cover.

  8. Next, glue the lid and cover our ottoman with varnish. Coating the ottoman with varnish is necessary so that the rope that is glued to our ottoman does not get wet under the influence of rain.

In addition, no special skills or expensive materials are required for work. Often used wheels are simply thrown away as unnecessary. But it turns out that they can be given a second life!

It is quite comfortable to sit on such an ottoman, as it is stable. Moreover, it can be used as coffee table... Such ottomans will look great in the gazebo, on the veranda or in the hallway. As you can see in the photo, they look pretty original. There are at least three ways to make such simple furniture.

The first way

Old tire pouf (option 1)

You can make a pouf from one wheel, but it will be a bit low for an adult. Therefore, we suggest trying to connect two tires together. To work you need the following tools:

  • jigsaw;
  • screwdriver;
  • file;
  • construction stapler;
  • scissors and knife;
  • pencil or marker;
  • screws.

Of the materials, you will need two tires, plywood, foam rubber for laying, fabric for upholstery, a belt or hose. We wash the tires thoroughly to keep them clean. On the one that will be the top, cut out four small holes for further fastening the seat.

Seat mounting holes

You can connect the wheels to each other using screws.

Connect

The seat is made of plywood. Draw a circle on the sheet - the same diameter as the tire. Then cut it out with a jigsaw and file the edges.

Cut out the base for the seat

Make a round pad out of foam rubber.

Foam pad

Cover the seat with a cloth, fastening it to the plywood with a stapler from the back.

Cloth cover

Secure the seat with a belt or hose.

Temporary fixation

Attach it with screws to the top wheel.

Seating the seat to the bus

The rubber part can be painted in your favorite color. This is one of the options for making an ottoman out of a tire. As you can see in the photo, it looks pretty original.

Second way

Old tire pouf (option 2)

There is another method - using a rope. You will need:

  • jigsaw;
  • screwdriver or screwdriver;
  • scissors;
  • glue gun;
  • self-tapping screws;
  • thick twine or hemp rope;
  • upholstery fabric;
  • brush.

Required tools and materials

In this case, we cut out two circles from a chipboard sheet and attach them with self-tapping screws on both sides of the tire.

Securing the plywood circle

Then you can start decorating the future pouf. For this we use a skein of rope. You need to start from the center of the upper circle. Using a glue gun, the rope is fixed in a spiral.

Cover decoration

When the cover is ready, proceed to the sides of the wheel. In the same way, we wind the rope in a spiral. You need to work carefully, tightly pressing the new coil to the previous one. We leave the bottom as it is.

Side decoration

When the twine seizes, that is, the glue dries well, we cover the ottoman made of the tire with colorless varnish.

For reliability, it is better to apply several layers. This will protect it from moisture and dirt, making it easier to further care behind the product.

Varnish application

Such a do-it-yourself tire seat looks beautiful in an eco-style room.

Third way

Old tire pouf (option 3)

If you don't want to mess with the rope, it doesn't matter. To quickly make a seat, you can simply place an old cushion inside the wheel. In this case, also prepare:

  • foam rubber;
  • fabric / mesh;
  • lace or fringe;
  • thick threads for sewing;
  • self-tapping screws.

If you want the pouf to be as tall as a chair, use two wheels. Connect them together with self-tapping screws. Cut a rectangle out of the foam that is large enough to wrap around the wheel. Sew its edges. This will make the frame soft and beautiful.

Cover the top of the frame with a dense fabric, and put a circle of foam rubber on top. Then overlap the seat with one piece of upholstery material and side part... Use a strong thread. You can decorate the product with lace, fringe or other decorative elements. Look at photos of such products and borrow the idea.

And one more thing: to make furniture easy to move around the room, handles can be attached to it. An old belt is suitable for this. Make hinges out of it and attach with screws to the frame. Thus, you have learned how you can make beautiful puffs out of tires in three ways.

Today we will look at how to make an original pouf from a regular car tire. Making an ottoman from a tire with your own hands does not require large expenses, and it can also be used as a coffee table or a banquet.

To make an ottoman out of a tire with our own hands, we need:

new or used tire;

2 circles of MDF, 6 mm thick, 55 cm in diameter;

six self-tapping screws;

puncher;

screwdriver;

glue gun or super glue;

screw cord 5 meters long, 10 mm thick;

cloth for cleaning tires;

Clean the tires from dirt with a dry cloth, if the tire is heavily soiled, then rinse it and let dry.

Place 1 circle of MDF on the car tire and punch 3 holes around the edges at 3 distant points so that the hammer drill will penetrate the rubber.

Using a screwdriver and self-tapping screws, fix the MDF to the bus. Do the same for each of the holes and repeat steps 1, 2 and 3 on the other side of the tire.

Using glue, secure one end of the cord to the center of the MDF circle.

Holding with your hand, continue to glue the cord in a spiral, not forgetting to use required amount glue in front of each circle.

After covering the entire MDF circle with cord, do the same over the edges of the car tire.

Rotate the tire and continue to cover it with cord until you reach the edge of the second MDF circle.
