<\/p>\n

Now the days are getting a little shorter and we\u2019re starting to spend more time indoors, most of us are starting to think more fondly of long evenings on the sofa, complete with some hot chocolate and a favourite film. If you don\u2019t already have one, footstools can really help the whole \u2018lounging\u2019 experience \u2013 if there are two of you on the sofa, it means you can both put your feet up comfortably! If you have lots of guests round, footstools can also double as temporary chairs.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve picked out 10 of our favourites in a range of shapes, sizes and styles, suitable for any decor no matter how little \u2013 or how much \u2013 room you have.<\/p>\n
