Here are a few steps to stuff a Moroccan leather pouf

Gather  ottoman Leather Pouf  filling materials. Traditional fillings for Moroccan poufs include wool, cotton, feathers, and kapok. Wool and cotton provide firm support. Feathers and kapok will create a softer, squishier pouf. Also you can use polyester fiberfill. Get enough filling to stuff the pouf tightly so it maintains its shape.

Get leather sealant or fabric and a needle and thread. You may want to seal any holes or seams in the leather before stuffing, especially if using loose fillings like feathers. Fabric can also be used to create interior lining and help support the filling.

Seal the pouf and create compartments. Apply sealant to any holes in the leather or create a fabric lining. Also you can stitch fabric dividers inside the pouf to create separate compartments for the filling. This prevents the filling from shifting around inside.

Stuff the center compartment first. Fill the center of the pouf about 2/3 to 3/4 full. Overstuffing the guts can make it difficult to seal and complete the other compartments.

Create and stuff side compartments. Fold the leather or fabric on the center filling and stitch side compartments, leaving one side open. Stuff the side compartments firmly and fold the leather to seal.

Add final seal and embellishments. Apply sealant round the remaining opening to firmly seal the pouf. You may also add decorative buttons, tassels, embroidery or tufting to the very best of the pouf to create an indentation for serving food or drinks.

Fluff and shape the pouf. Gently manipulate the pouf with your hands to distribute the filling evenly inside. Pinch and shape the pouf into a smooth, round shape. Fluff and rotate the pouf regularly as it settles.

Add anti-skid pads (optional). You can adhere felt pads, silicone dots or rubber bumpers to the bottom of the pouf to avoid sliding on floors.

This process could also be used to restuff a pouf that has been compressed or lumpy as time passes. Make sure to thoroughly remove the old filling before adding fresh filling and sealing the pouf back up.
