Diamond Tufted Ottoman. Whew!
I’m totally excited to share my latest with you all because it proves, once again, that you don’t have to be a professional to make beautiful things. And if I can do it, so can you!
Now, that’s not to say you won’t wake up the next morning with sore fingertips and stiff muscles, but, trust me, it’s worth it!
Here’s the finished product…
I’m loving it!
{insert big sigh}
I did a lot of research before starting this, and I’ll list some resources for you at the end of this post, but I’ll walk you through my steps as well. And there are a lot of them, so buckle your seat belt.
I started with this coffee table from Goodwill. It did have glass in it originally, but I knew this was going to be an ottoman, so I didn’t even bother bringing the glass home.
After removing the top and lightly sanding, it was ready for paint: one coat of Sherwin Williams’ Earl Grey and then a little glaze with a walnut stain like I did for this piece. Some light distressing with a sanding block finished off the base.
Now for the “tuft part” also known as the “tough part”. (Sorry-I couldn’t resist). I used a 4-inch dense foam cut to a 37-inch square. Click here for a great online source for the foam. It can be cut with an electric kitchen knife to the size you need! I used foam that was one inch larger than the size of board I would be attaching it to. You want your foam to be slightly larger so that it will wrap around the edges of the board a little bit and prevent the fabric from poking through later.
I used colored sewing pins to plan out where I wanted the buttons to go. It was super-easy this way to arrange and re-arrangeandget an idea of the pattern I wanted. I should add that I had originally planned to go with 23 buttons, but once I looked at it, I realized that, in this case, less was moreandended up with only 11. Of course that meant less work as well,andI’m all for that!
I marked the pins with a marker, then cut the holes. This is where I differed a little from other how-to’s I read about. Some people use a cylindrical cutting tool or scissors or a knife, but I decided to try drilling it, which worked out well for me. It was a little trickyandI would recommend trying it out on a test piece of foam if possible to get a feel for it, but I basically drilled in short burstsandjust let the bit rip grab onto the foamandrip it out. I also only went about halfway down the foam because my foam was so thick I didn’t want the button to go all the way to the bottomanddisappear.
The drilling worked so well, it only took a few minutes to get all the holes cut. Then came the batting. I used 2 layers of 1-inch battingandglued it down with a little hot glue. Here’s the type of batting I used.
Then, I cut an “x” over each hole.
Next it was time to prepare the board. I used a 1-inch thick piece of particle board that we already had, but a piece of plywood would work as well. My husband marked the holes for me by hammering a long nail through each hole in the foam down to the board to mark for drilling. Then, he drilled through each mark.
Finally, I was ready for the tufting. So I set up my board and foam across two saw horses so I could work underneath, and then covered the foam and board with my fabric. And if you read me often, you probably know what fabric I used for this: that’s right–another canvas drop cloth. I love them so much I couldn’t use anything else. And in this case, it really would be difficult to use something else because I needed a width of at least 72 inches to accommodate for the tufting and wrapping. I gave myself an extra 18 inches of fabric all around to make sure I had enough.
I covered my buttons with my fabric using thiscovered button kit,and had them ready to go along with the longest needle I could find and some strong nylon thread like this one here.
I started the tufting in the center and just pushed the fabric into the hole with my fingers. Then, I threaded a few long strands of the thread onto the needle, and poked the needle up from the bottom of the board. (Sorry I don’t have pics of this.) Then, I sewed thru the button and back down thru the bottom. Underneath, I pulled all the strands of thread thru a large button that I used as an anchor and tied them off really well.
Then, I just repeated the process with every button, working from the center out, creating the folds for the diamond pattern as I went. This process isn’t as difficult as it may seem. It just takes a little working with the fabric to get it right.
Once that was all done, I wrapped the edges around, stapled it well, and cut off the excess fabric.
To get my pleats a little more defined and crisp, I ironed them down carefully and that made them just right.
Then, I placed the top onto the base and it would’ve been done. Except for the fact that I had forgotten to take into account that the foam added onto the top of the base would make it too high for the sofa. I like a coffee table or ottoman to be just slightly lower than the height of the sofa. So, learn from my mistake and think about this first so you don’t have to do what we did and chop the legs off after the fact. And if you do have to chop, don’t forget to add these little furniture tacks on the bottom to protect your floor.
Once that was done, it was just right.
Did I get enough angles for ya?
I. love. it. Hope you do, too. If you have questions, I’ll try to help you out. And I hope you’re inspired to try this yourself!

Hi! GREAT project!! You did a fantastic job on it! Infact, my husband and I are so inspired we already went out and bought a table to start this ourselves! We've been searching for reasonably priced foam and have had a hard time finding it! Where did you get yours and do you mind me asking for how much?? Thanks for the help!!
Julie
January 26, 2012 @ 8:32 pm
So glad you've decided to try it! I buy my foam at a foam outlet in my area. I would google "foam rubber" or "upholstery supplies" in your area to find it. Mine cost around $30 from what I can remember. Feel free to email me if you have further questions!
Liz and Josh
January 27, 2012 @ 5:18 pm
Love this & can't wait to try it!! Did you attach the top to the base (with legs) last after the top was complete? How did you attach it after it had already been upholstered? Thanks!
Julie
January 27, 2012 @ 6:33 pm
Yes, the top is attached at the end by screwing it on from the bottom up. In our case, there were small brackets that had held the original top to the base, so we just re-used them. You can buy small brackets from any hardware store if they don't come with the table.

January 28, 2012 @ 3:34 am
where did you get the foam from? I am finding it mighty expensive…and some not even wider than 24". please let me know! i am so excited to get this done!!
Julie
January 28, 2012 @ 2:30 pm
See my reply above to OliviaJanae about where I got mine. Good luck on your search!
Erin
February 3, 2012 @ 3:03 pm
Love this! I want to make one and I think I found a table that will work… It's the same size as yours but the edges are more rounded and have a carved detail. Do you think the foam would go around the edge weird, or will it be fluffy enough to balance out?
Julie
February 3, 2012 @ 3:13 pm
I'm not sure. I removed the original top from mine & used a piece of board which just had a straight edge. I think it would depend on HOW rounded & carved it is. If it's only slightly, it may work.

Julie
June 27, 2012 @ 12:27 pm
I used L brackets that had held the original top in place. If your table is not attached that way, you might try buying some small ones at a hardware store.

Julie I love this ottoman and just about every thing you post for crying out loud!
I am now ready to make this ottoman, I'm also using drop cloth, (because it's awesome, and I couldn't find anything else that matched our sofa that I liked) so i have a question for you regarding the fabric? Did you put a scotch guard on it or anything? How has it kept up to dirty feet? : ) : )
Thank you!

Your ottoman is simply gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing! I have been searching for an ottoman forever but don't want to pay an arm and a leg. I absolutely love this idea and want to go for it How much fabric did you use? I have found the fabric I want online, but I have no idea how much to order. I want to make sure I have plenty but don't want to go crazy. I am looking to find a table similar to the size of yours. Thanks in advance!!
Julie
November 25, 2014 @ 3:21 am
Ugh! That's a hard question, especially without having exact measurements of the table you'll use. However, I would be careful if you use a 36" table like I did because most decor fabrics come in 54" width which may not be quite enough to compensate for the depth of the foam and the tufting. I wish a had a more definite answer for you! I would suggest making approx a 6 inch allowance for each "tuft", plus the depth of foam and a couple inches for wrapping under.

The fabric I am looking at ordering is 54 inches, and you order it by the yard. What was the approx. depth of your foam?

How does the top attach to the bottom? I am missing that part of how this works. I love what you did and have a nearly identical table that will be converted as soon as I find fabric I love and have a free weekend!

We just screwed the top back on with the same screws we had taken off of the original top 🙂
