|
|
Hi
I am making some cushions and want to fill them with natural materials. They need to be quite firm so I was trying to source products such as Flax husks, Buckwheat, Kapok or some other natural product left over from the food industry. I think maybe the more local the better.
Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction please?
Cheers

Hi
I got a large sample delivery of sheep's wool insulation...It's perfect for flatter softer cushions, so I am having a go with that for a few. Thanks for the idea.
I would still like to know if anyone can tell me where to get the other natural stuff. I might even consider recycled plastic beads or similar too.
