there are many people who make and sell them but i don't know of any corporations or actual registered businesses.

best bet is to find a sewing machine you can use and make it yourself out of your material of choice.

I think anything over $25 is above my price range to be "hip".. that was so last season anyway, right?

where do you get the foam padding?
c0urt
10-09-07, 09:13 AM
art supply or a sewing supply store, it is 1/8 inch white or green colored closed cell foam sheet and sold by the sheet or by the yard usually .
or you could go to the hardware store and get the black pipe insulation foam.

or i guess you could use pillow batting if you were balling on a budget. and just cut open and old pillow.
