Video Description

I really wanted a couch for my apartement so I decided to make my own. I happened to have a bunch of stuff (trash) left over that I recycled into this thing, mainly two old mattresses, I used the springs from one of them for additional padding and the foam from another for the cushions. The base is made from reclaimed wood beams I got for free. The only things I bought for this was the steel tubing (45x45x2mm, about 50€) and the fabric for the covers, again about 50€. A friend helped with the layout and sewing for those (thanks!) 📐 Etsy Store / Plans: https://www.etsy.com/listing/731222822 🙏🏻 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/philvandelay 📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/phil_vandelay/
