I was looking to get myself a camera cushion, for taking wildlife shots from the car.
So I did a quick Google search and when I saw the price being asked for what was a cushion after all I decided that I would make one for myself!
So that's what I've done.
I had a tatty old pair of craghopper trousers and there was a bag of kapok in the shed. So I had all the ingredients.
So I got out the sewing machine and after an hour's sewing and stuffing this is what I ended up with...
Best of all it cost me the princely sum of 0 pence!
The best price there is.
It's been made like that so that it can straddle across the car door/window. Or it can be laid on its side and the camera plonked on top.
It's always best if you can make things for yourself and save (more than) a few pennies to boot, eh?
It was dead easy to do and I would heartily recommend that if you are after something similar that you have a go at making your own as well.
