Extra Seating with Accent Benches, Stools, and Ottomans


       
            Accent furniture provides more than just functionality. They also provide the perfect finishing touch to your home without breaking your budget.

            If extra seating is what you need, look for accent benches, stools, and ottomans. This type of accent furniture can be placed at the edge of a bed, can serve as a replacement coffee table for your bedside sofa set, and can even be placed near your entrance. In an office, this can serve as an extra seating space which is not only functional, but also stylish. 

            Accent benches, stools, and ottomans provide more than just extra seating. They can be multi-function and also serve as an extra storage space. They can have boxes underneath or baskets and compartments for added storage. Some, called storage benches, even have seats that can be opened to reveal yet another storage space. 

Accent benches come with or without cushions. The cushioned type is flat enough to hold a food tray and function as a table. Accent stools can range from the traditional to the contemporary. You have a variety of shapes, sizes, and designs to choose from. Accent ottomans are typically round in shape and can have tufting for style. Some ottomans may also come with a skirt. Accent cubes are a type of ottoman that is shaped like a cube, providing seating good enough for one person. Cubes can also function as foot stools. 

Accent furniture is lightweight and can be easily moved around. To add protection, you can buy felt pads and place them under the feet of the furniture to prevent them from scratching the flooring or any surface. 

Extra seating, extra storage space, multi-function. What else do you need? With the functionality provided to you by accent benches, stools, and ottomans, surely you will enjoy decorating your home without going over budget.
