Homemade, luxurious bean bags
We are so in love with this trendy (and proudly South African) bean bag company that has the coolest new bean bags on the market! Started during lockdown by Pietermaritzburg university student Charllene Boshoff, Beanbag Poof went from a single, homemade bean bag in her living room to a bustling bean bag mecca that has become the latest craze. With the help of her mom, Charllene found a method that was quick and easy, but allowed her to produce simple, but luxurious bean bag chairs, in three different sizes and loads of different fabric colours, patterns and textures, as well as a water-resistant range and pool floaties. Free delivery to Pietermaritzburg and select areas of Durban. Details: www.beanbagpoof.co.za, 079 777 1470, [email protected], IG: @beanbagpoof.
