Put Up Your Feet and Stay Awhile

We finally have a place to put our feet up! Before when we watched TV, Jon and I would drag over a basket we kept blankets in and put a pillow on top of it. Then we would share this 14x14 space on a pillow for both of our feet. Not ideal at all, but it worked at the time. We finally got an ottoman that is big enough for all of us. It even has storage in it for Noah's big floor pillow so when he is not using it, it's not taking up space on our floor.
 
It is dark brown to match the wood on the feet of the couch and chair, our kitchen table and our new light fixture. Things are coming together slowly, but at least they are coming together, right? So come on over and visit...we won't make you put your feet on a pillow. :)

Super cute and gotta love the storage. Ender and I put our feet up on a fold out camping chair so I feel your previous pain.

So you know my big window in the front room? Should my drapes go to the bottom of the window or to the floor?
Miss you!

Shelley! I miss you too!! How are things in the George, Ivins, the ward?

I always go to the floor. I don't like the look of cutting rooms in half. I did a curtain that went to the bottom of the window once and have never done it again...just don't like it. It's a personal choice, but I always go as close to the ceiling as I can (in a pre-made curtain because I don't sew. lol) to the floor. I think it makes the room look longer and more finished.
