The Renaissance Of The Bean Bag In The 21st Century

Although older people may associate leather and vinyl bags that are filled with polystyrene

beads with the swinging sixties, in recent years they have made something of a comeback and can be spotted in houses around the UK and Northern Europe. One of the reasons for the enduring appeal of this iconic design is the combination of style and practicality that it brings to modern homes.

When they first appeared for sale, it was hard to find one that was not made from leather and they were only available in a limited number of colours. However, if you are looking for a bag to complement the dcor of your house you will find plenty of choice nowadays. They come in a wide range of colours, shapes and sizes and the covers are made from various different fabrics such as denim, PVC and faux suede. If you do not feel like slouching on the floor, you can buy one of the many models of bean bag that are made in the shape of a conventional chair and retain some dignity in your old age.

People with gardens will be pleased to know that a number of companies now manufacture bags designed to be used outdoors. The covers are usually very hardwearing and available in bright colours that appeal to kids and adults alike. It is even possible to buy an outdoor lounger that is filled with polystyrene beans, which are ideal for sun worshippers who like to lounge in comfort. In fact, the humble bag has come a long way since the 1960s and with the possible exception of the kitchen, it is hard to think of a place in the home where they would not be practical.

The traditional style is not really a good choice for senior citizens unless they are very fit as it can be difficult to stand up again after relaxing in one for a couple of hours. However, there are plenty of models that are ideal for elderly people so there is no need to worry that your grandparents will have nowhere to sit if you decide to chuck all your old chairs away and replace them all with seats that are variations on this classic design.
