Small footstool in a neutral color
One of the questions we’ve heard the most about small footstools is whether or not they need to match the couch. The answer is simple: they certainly can if you’re after the most cohesive result, but they don’t have to.
In fact, some people might find it a bit overwhelming to have all their living room furniture in the same color.
For example, a small footstool in a versatile neutral hue that’s already present elsewhere in your palette could do an even better job of creating a balanced result.
