Footstools For Living Rooms FAQs

We sell a wide range of footstools designed for living rooms, including low-level footstools, ottoman footstools, round footstools and so much more. Handcrafted with luxury materials such as leather, plush velvet, boucle and tartan, you can create a custom footstool that can transform any living room into a cosy and inviting space. Let’s explore which footstool is just right for your living room: 

Small Footstools

Our small footstools, also known as low-level footstools, sit close to the floor and are designed with high-quality bun feet. Designed for everyday living, our selection of small footstools are great for resting your feet as you sit upright in an armchair or on a sofa. 

Due to their smaller size, they can be used as decorative accent pieces to add a bit of character to the home. Choose between luxury leathers, stylish tartan or cosy boucle materials to add warmth to the living space. 

Ottoman Footstools

Ottoman footstools are designed with a singular storage compartment that makes organisation and tidying so much easier. Inside, you can store all of your everyday items, from books, magazines, blankets, board games, and anything else you might not want on show. As family members gather and relax in the living room environment, ottoman footstools make all the difference for freeing up more space in your home. 

Round Footstools

Round or cylindrical-shaped footstools make a great space saving solution for your lounge or conservatory. Designed with soft and subtle curves, they make a great accent feature to add your home. When you’re not putting your feet up on them, you can even use them as a spare coffee table for your magazine, phone or books. 

Also available in a selection of beautiful fabrics, you can make your round footstool pair perfectly with your living room decor. Not only are they practical, they’re stylish too! 

Caring for your living room footstool is important for it to have a long lifespan and for you to get your money’s worth. With some simple cleaning and maintenance tips, your footstool is sure to feel refreshed and as good as new. 

General Maintenance 

Over time, dust, debris and hairs can build up on the footstool. To remove these, we recommend using a soft brush attachment from your vacuum cleaner every week or so. If you have pets, you may want to do this more regularly. 

If your living room footstool is made from leather, we recommend you use a suitable leather conditioner. While our leathers are premium quality, using leather conditioner can be an extra step in preventing it from cracking.

If your footstool starts to feel a little bit misshapen, gently adjust it to help it stay looking new. 

Spillages & Stains 

If a spillage occurs, there’s no need to worry! The sooner you tend to the spillage, the better. We recommend that you take a lightly damp cloth with lukewarm water, and treat the stain by blotting the area. Don’t rub spillage as this can push the liquid into the fabrics even more. 

Things To Avoid 

When removing a stain or cleaning up a spillage on your footstool, do not use any harsh chemicals as they can damage the fabrics even more.  

We also recommend that you keep the footstool away from direct sunlight as too much heat or exposure can dry it out even more. 

Avoid applying too much pressure on the footstools as they are only designed to handle their weight limits. Too much pressure in one spot of the footstool can create dents and even damage it. 

Additional Footstool Hygiene Benefits 

Our footstools are designed with anti-fungal and anti-microbial properties to help with their hygiene and the cleaning process. These properties actively help repel germs that come from coughs and colds, and they also reduce odour build up which makes them a practical solution for busy homes. 

Choosing the right footstool that pairs with your living room decor is of course largely down to your personal preferences. However, if you have a certain interior style, or you’re thinking about redecorating your living space that’s inspired by a decor type, we can recommend some footstools that will certainly complement these. 

Scandinavian 

The Scandi style is a type of minimalist interior that’s heavily inspired by natural, organic materials. It often features bright white shades, earthy colour tones and soft lighting. This style is loved for its warmth and clean look that transforms so many living spaces. 

A recommended material for this type of interior style is our boucle footstools. Bouclé is made from wool and it’s made with a lot of loops and curls, making it textured and soft to the touch. This organic material is a great choice for adding warmth to a Scandi-inspired interior, while opting for lighter shades such as white can help enhance the sense of light, openness and airiness that defines this style.

Rustic, Countryside & Traditional Interiors  

Rustic and countryside interior styles are often inspired by farmhouses and cottages, consisting of earthy and natural colours and textures. Warm tones are often showcased throughout this interior style, making homes feel warm, cosy and inviting. 

For this reason, our tartan collection really makes a great choice for this type of interior. Our tartan footstools have a heritage, Scottish-inspired feel that make these footstools a lovely accent piece in living rooms. 

If you’re looking for something more subtle, brown leather footstools work really well with the surrounding wooden decor that is often seen within this interior style. Chesterfield-style footstool makes a classic statement piece for traditional and countryside interiors.

Art Deco

Art Deco interiors are all about luxury and elegance, often featuring bold colours, geometric patterns and metallic finishes. This timeless interior style creates a sophisticated feel, with rich textures and statement furniture pieces helping to bring the room together.

For this reason, our plush velvet footstools make a great choice for Art Deco-inspired homes. Velvet is a soft and luxurious material that adds depth and texture to your living room, and you can pair your velvet footstool with gold accents and decorative lighting to complete the classic Art Deco look.

Boho & Chic 

Boho and chic interiors are often seen as free-spirited, creative and quirky styles. These styles also include a lot of organic and natural materials and decor, such as wicker lighting and houseplants. 

To really capture this style in your home, a jumbo chord footstool can make a unique addition and accent piece to your lounge. Its soft, textured upholstery complements the layered look that boho interiors are known for, while adding warmth, comfort and visual interest to your space.

Fabulous speedy service. Footstool arrived within 3 days. Perfect for what we wanted as present for mum. Sturdy and good quality. We were impressed! We sent for sample swatches beforehand which I would recommend . However though I asked for 1 day delivery they took 10 days to arrive which is the fault of Royal Mail, not the company ,but allow extra time if you're ordering on a deadline.
