When autumn rolls around, you want to make sure that your home is comfortable to truly enjoy this special season. If you are looking to take on a few side projects or try some fall foam crafts, foam is a great product to use in a variety of ways. From pet beds and insulation to mattress toppers and pillows, foam has a wide range of uses that can help you get your home ready for the upcoming season. Let’s take a look at the top 10 ways foam can be used in the fall:
- Pet Beds
As the weather starts to cool down, you’ll want to keep your pets comfortable and give them a warm place to sleep. Fall is the perfect time to make your dog a new bed! If your pup spends a lot of time outdoors, you will want to give them a way to keep warm and cozy in their doghouse. If your pet will be spending more time indoors due to the colder temperatures outside, a comfortable pet bed will help keep them off the furniture! Memory foam pet beds can also help many older dogs who suffer from arthritis, which tends to be worse in colder weather. - Insulation
With autumn upon us, insulation is a no-brainer to any homeowner. Since insulation helps keep heating and cooling costs down year-round, it is an important aspect of any house. Foam is a great way to insulate your home and trap in the heat as the chill of fall rolls around. Plus, adding foam along the windows can benefit you and your wallet in the long term. The beginning of fall is a great time to double-check this aspect of your home before the cold temperatures of winter arrive. - Cushion/Seat Repair
During the fall time, you will most likely have family and friends over for the holidays. Whether you are throwing a Halloween bash, a potluck Thanksgiving feast, or getting ready for your annual Christmas party, your guests will need somewhere comfortable to sit and enjoy the festivities. If you have a sofa or chair needing repairs, foam can be a great resource. You can custom order a cushion replacement or you can repair a hole by gluing foam in place underneath the cover. Best of all, using foam allows you to choose the right firmness to meet your needs. Check out the different types of foam cushions today and make your selection! - New Mattress/Mattress Topper

With the use of foam, you can easily revamp a tired mattress and give it new life. Foam is a great mattress solution thanks to its durability, comfortable nature, and wide range of firmness levels available.

Looking to spruce things up a bit for fall? Refreshing your pillows is a great idea! From oversized couch pillows to memory foam whole body pillows, foam can be used to make a range of options to match your preference. Whether you’re revamping the living room, bedroom, or guest room, a fluffy pillow is always a great thing to cozy up with in the fall. - Bean Bag Chairs
If you’re hosting the family this year, bean bag chairs and foam sacks are the perfect way to host kids and teens while giving them a cool place to sit. Bean bag chairs filled with foam scraps are an affordable and fun way to increase the seating choices in your home. Best of all, these can be stored with ease or used year-round! - Sponges
While spring is usually the hyped time for cleaning, there is no denying that things can get messy in the fall leading into the winter, too. With the holidays all packed together in the span of three months, having a few reliable sponges to keep the house clean and spotless is never a bad idea. From wiping up after Thanksgiving dinner to cleaning the bathroom before the family arrives, residential foam sponges are a great choice. - Draft Stoppers
With the cooler air of the season, a draft stopper can make all the difference. Foam is a great choice for draft stoppers since it is a great insulator. You can add strips of foam at the bottom of doors to keep the warm air locked in the house. - Decorations/Craft Projects
From Halloween costumes to Thanksgiving décor, foam can be used for all sorts of craft projects during the fall season. Check out our blog for inspiration for fall foam crafts! - Outdoor Seating

In order to make this a fun fall activity, outdoor seating needs to be comfortable. With the use of foam, you can repair or add extra foam to your outdoor seating to ensure the comfort of everyone gathered around.
