Make your own owl bean bag. Seriously!



Thanks Robin for the tip. This is such a cool project. Cost of material - less than the cost of a new bean bag; Fun and laughs you'll have doing this project - priceless!

Tips for felt: Try a quilting store for your felt. Often they have fat quarters available in a variety of colors. The quality is much better than craft felt and the colors tend to be more subtle and sophisticated than the stock primaries that the craft store offers.
