One of the most sought-after furniture links in our home is the bonus room ottoman. I don’t blame you one bit because it’s one of my very favorite pieces.The unfortunate part is where I bought it shop amber interioris a unique piece, but luckily I have collected many other great ottomans.

I love having an ottoman (rather than a coffee table) in my lounging room because it’s nice to kick my feet and “unload.” It’s also great if you have kids (and babies) so they don’t bump into hard coffee table edges. Chris would often bring a tray of goodies or his board of charcuterie and we put it on top.
This is what used to be in the basement family room.

I don’t think I could part with this ottoman. The perfect size and quality materials make it perfect for incorporating different textiles and patterns into any space.

Using an ottoman to introduce new materials, textures, or colors is a great way to make a room feel more cohesive and purposeful. So I added a camel leather ottoman for better balance. The pattern of the diamond bunch is also new and fresh!
If your furniture is neutral, bring in a colored or patterned ottoman for a change of mood. Alternatively, if you have a lot of soft materials, you can combine different materials with metal or wooden legs on the ottoman. I feel like no room is complete without wood, brass, black, colors, patterns and neutral elements.
In addition, you can freely stack books on the ottoman and arrange baskets and trays. It’s soft enough to rest your feet on and relax, but sturdy enough to use as a hard surface. I love layered spaces.

Ottomans aren’t just for living rooms and family rooms! This leather ottoman lived in our bedroom closet for a while and was very functional! I’m hesitant to admit… Oops! Bad habits are hard to break. It also feels like it’s really in the center of space and grounded.
Besides large closets, the ottoman can also be placed in bedrooms, entrances as benches, or even in large open bathrooms!

Can be used as a bench or an ottoman. We did this and I like how the bench tends to mimic the more rectangular shape of the sofa.It’s very practical and shows that you can be creative with your furniture.
