The base of the ottoman is a coffee table that was sanded and painted black. A circle of 1/2" plywood was cut to the same size as the top of the coffee table, and a hole was drilled at center for tufting later. This was repeated with 2" foam. The foam was spray glued to the plywood, and wrapped with batting to soften edges. Fabric was cut, stretched, stapled to the underside of the plywood circle. Before all edges were stapled down, a tufting button wrapped in the same fabric was threaded down through the fabric, foam, and plywood, tightened, and stapled in place. The edges of the fabric were trimmed to avoid bulk, and the seat was screwed to the base from underneath.
