Decorating: The X Bench

I’ve had an obsession with x-benches for a long time but have never found myself in the position with enough money or space for them.  I love how versatile they are, extra seating when you have company or as a holding place for books, a tray or – your feet! So, when I found myself with a huge living room I knew the time had come!

Enter: Target. I passed up these beautiful coral x-benches the first time I saw them in store, and finally tracked down 2 this weekend. I can’t wait to show you them in our living room! At $60 each, they are a fraction of the cost of upholstered versions I’ve found and I know they’ll be a piece I keep forever. (They are also pictured in the top right picture of the first collage) What do you think?
