Bean bags have been around for decades and when they first originated in the late 1960s they were all the rage and were considered the ‘in’ thing when it came to bedroom furniture. As all good things the popularity came to an end but they later emerged in the 1990’s for some time and then went under the radar again. Towards the end of 2008 and through 2009 bean bags and bean bag bedroom chairs have again been hitting the must have list.

Why is it bean bag bedroom chairs keep cropping back up? Bean bag chairs are great because they are inexpensive, comfortable, easy to place, and versatile. They are not like ordinary bedroom chairs made out of wood and nails, bean bag chairs can be used to sit on, to lounge on, as a cushion, as a pillow, and a decorative piece in your bedroom. Bean bag bedroom chairs are inviting and you cannot help yourself but run up to them and sink into their comfyness.

Here is a look at some of the different options of bean bag bedroom chairs:

Bean Bag Club Bedroom Chair – this type of bean bag chair mimics an ordinary armchair except instead of being made from a wood base with a fabric topping, it is filled with styrofoam pellets. With this type of bean bag chair you can have the footrest that goes with it.
Standard Bean Bag Chair – the original bean bag chair is a ball in shape, and sitting into the bean bag creates the effect of a chair. This type of bean bag bedroom chair is the most popular because they are the most cost effective and they ooze comfort and scream out lounge on me!

Childrens Bean Bag Bedroom Chairs – bean bags are particular a favourite amongst children and parents. Why? Because they are so soft and safe. With an ordinary bedroom chair or other hard wooden bedroom furniture you may be worried that children will hurt themselves especially if they like making dens and climbing all over the place, accidents can happen. Bean bags are great because kids can run, jump, and fall on to them and they are safe and cushion the fall. Bean bag bedroom chairs are perfect for your little ones who are also full of beans!

Remember when beanbag chairs were all the rage back in-well, I assume it would be the late 1970’s or early 1980’s? They were so cool and everyone had to have one. My baby sister had a candy apple red beanbag chair we all loved. We used to sneak into her chair to read a good book and hope she would not catch us and get crazy.

That beloved beanbag chair got passed down thru the ranks and turned into a fixture in my child’s bedroom about 20 years ago-until he unzipped it and unloaded all of the’beans’ from it as a toddler. In reality it absolutely was a bit of a foam pebble mess. That could be a memory to recall! And so that red beanbag chair came to meet its demise. But it lasted ten years or more-and it would potentially still be here today if I might have figured out how to get all that’stuff’ back inside. Today’s bean bag furniture does not have that problem.

Now bean bag furniture is back in style and popular again, and it’s popping up everywhere! Like all good things, great trends come around so a new generation can embrace and experience the fun. Nowadays my 17-year-old girl has a royal blue beanbag chair-and a beanbag chair that looks like a soccer ball-in her room.

Bean bag furniture is superb for teens and youngsters. Casual, comfortable, and cool-beanbag chairs are great. They also make great additions to a dorm room at varsity and provide a lot of spur of the moment seating for movie nights at home, groups of kids in a rec room battling it out on the PlayStation, and other casual get togethers. Bean bag furniture is simple to store-just stack ‘em up in a closet and pull them out when you need them-and they even double as a bed for youngsters having sleepovers.

I love the new size options in bean bag furniture, too! The sofa size lounge chairs are superb for mates to share and for sleeping on-and go from six feet up to an amazing eight feet long. And the new beanbag chairs come in many different sizes-3 foot, 5 foot, and six foot sizes.

Today you can choose from colours like chocolate, mocha, kiwi, lime, pumpkin, indigo, sky, purple, wine, mustard, and more, as well as staples like solid black or charcoal gray and khaki. Many of these sound good enough to eat. You can decide to mix and match pieces to make a thrilling eclectic look or coordinate the bean bag furniture all to match in one room.

Bean bag furniture is great for fraternities and sororities may wish to invest in these for their frat homes, and they’d even work great in waiting rooms where youngsters and youths are frequent patients-like family or pediatric offices, orthodontist offices, and more .

yup, bean bag furniture is back! But they’re back with a completely new fashionable twist on style and functionality for the 21st century!
