A storage pouffe can be used to hold a collection of Legos and at the same time provide you with a place to sit on. A pouffe which appears generous when shown on a product page might in fact offer less usable space than you anticipate, so it is advisable to carry out a bit of measuring beforehand in order to avoid a great deal of later frustration.
At Footstools & More, we produce our items to order in Yorkshire so that we can go over the size, shape and fabric with you before we start building anything. You could combine your pouffe with a hallway bench; we also make bench stools so that the pouffe can hold the bricks while the bench seats your busy family.
Why Lid Access Matters for Daily Tidying
Children will tidy up when it is easy to do so, and if the lid is difficult to lift, then what would otherwise be a simple task becomes an argument.
Consider who is going to open the pouffe most frequently. A younger child will need a lid that they are able to open themselves, while a parent will need one that stays in place when someone sits on it. You should also think about where you are going to put the pouffe, since you need space so that it can be opened out completely without having to move other furniture.
The way in which opening styles are designed can vary from one model to another. If you're thinking of ordering a piece, ask us about the lid on it, and we'll tell you how it functions.
Choosing Upholstery for Children’s Rooms and Family Rooms
People tend to underestimate the importance of choosing the right fabric when children are around. For example, a pouffe in the family room has to endure bumps, spills and the odd dropped brick.
We have a wide variety of fabrics and finishes, some of which are designer fabrics. If you'd like an exact match for a sofa or curtains, you can send us your own fabric. We give out free fabric samples, up to nine being available per request, so that you can see the colour, texture and feel of them in the light of your own home.
This week, measure your Lego collection and then look at the storage footstools and ottomans that we offer at Footstools & More. You might also consider a hallway bench to go with your pouffe.
Order your free fabric samples, and if none of the standard sizes is suitable, ask us about a bespoke pouffe. We'll assist you in selecting a size that will hold the bricks and fit well with your room.
