Comments (3)The closest store is about two hours away and I haven't been able to make it there. I've been pondering the ottoman for months and was wondering if anyone had direct experience with it. I think the tables are new. Cindy...See MoreWhat do I do for ottomans/coffee table(s) in this living room?
Comments (5)Actually, it's your sofa on the left facing the chairs and possibly the love seat that need a table. The sofa facing the love seat has tables on each side therefore one in front isn't really necessary. You could take the table from your last layout, rotate it and place it closer to the sofa facing the chairs. Place a small table (very small) or garden stool to the right of the love seat for that person to place a drink on. Another option would be two storage ottomans that can be moved around depending on where someone is sitting. If the tops are firm enough a glass can be set on them when your feet aren't!! ;)...See Morecoffee table ottoman quandary
Comments (52)This made me think of a hotel room we stayed in last year in New York. The Ottoman was round and could put a Tray on it or it could be pulled into two pieces so could be separated for people on different ends of the sectional. It worked great with our family and it was in blue. I was told you could have it custom made where I live for $500 to $750 but ended up finding one at Home Sense that was simpler. Found this picture online and in the other one excuse my family but you can see how the ottoman splits....See MoreHelp! I can’t pick an coffee table/ottoman
Comments (7)This sounds like a lot of dark. As a proud mud puppy mom (photo included because, well...), I'd encourage you to think about adding easy to clean fabrics in a lighter color. Maybe a white leather ottoman to complement the white pillows you're planning to add? Or something made from a performance fabric, like the stuff Sunbrella makes? We've had a light grey couch for awhile that is a not-so-resilient IKEA fabric, but it's machine washable. That's another direction to go in for a fabric ottoman. I would encourage you to think lighter for the rug, too. We have a light grey, cream, and taupe rug with a lot of irregularity and variety to it, kind of likethis one, but we bought it for a lower price several years ago at HomeGoods. It has survived multiple moves, a renovation, and potty training and it's still nice enough to go into a formal living room space. It looks modern and adds a lightness to the room. Follow up: the rug I included came up when I did a search for modern industrial area rug. You could also look at distressed area rugs....See Morecat_mom
