A really great piece should be beautiful, well-tailored, chic…and the best ones actually do a little work too. You have heard me on my soap box about upholstery that is meant for really living in….the hard stuff should add beauty and function to your nest too. In a home with lots of people and lots of stuff I want beautiful pieces to hold my beautiful, and not so beautiful, things…even board games and stacks of magazines need a home with easy access. Here some the fit the bill….

This is so classic…great to hold a TV in the family room and stash games and books…or add a little drama to the bedroom…

I love the lines on this bench…add a great cushion and pull it up to a breakfast room table, on the back patio, or in the front hall.
