Our Suggestion To Buying A Footstool

Today the footstool is emerging as a separate class of furniture in its own right. It can now be used as something to sit on, place something on, hide something in, or as a decorative piece for an entire room.

With a choice so wide there is no better place to search for your new footstool than here at Footstools Direct.  The range is large enough to satisfy any discerning furniture shopper and with fabric or leather footstools to choose from.  The footstool can be ordered in various sizes. Its shape can be organised to fit into the smallest or largest of spaces and the height of the footstool can be varied by an excellent choice of appropriate legs and feet.  No suite of sofas and chairs should ever be without a footstool. The footstool should be a central point of relaxation, becoming an oasis of calm after yet another weary day at work. Even if you can only grab yourself a few minutes of ‘quality time’ ensure that you gather up your footstool and take the weight off your feet just for a few moments.

Style is also an important part of choosing a footstool, since you will want the piece to compliment the rest of your decor. Will a boxy footstool that is flush with the ground coordinate better with the clean lines of your existing furniture, or is your style more traditional, making a footstool with carved legs a better choice? When selecting a footstool, it is a good idea to apply pressure to it or to sit down on it to make sure it is sturdy. Don’t forget to measure the width of the footstool to make sure it won’t be too large and feel awkward in your space. Measure the height as well to ensure that your feet will rest comfortably when sitting on your chair or sofa. In this way you will soon find the perfect footstool custom designed to your taste, specifications. No matter where you decide to purchase your footstool, or even if you decide to build one yourself, function, style, and value are the most important elements.
