direct from the ottoman empire

"Full of furniture, for some reason..."

My storage ottomans from The Company Store* arrived this morning, just as I was coming in from the farmer's market.

They are even more lovely than I expected--the fabric feels like Chinese silk (but clearly isn't) and the tufted tops are quite comfortable.

Of course, the minute I set them up by the window . . .

They're not going to stay lined up with the window. Immediately to the right is where the piano (fingers crossed) will go, which will push the ottomans off center. I now have the piano dimensions, and at 58" long it will barely fit--but it will fit--in the 59" wide slightly recessed area. And at 25" deep, it will fit--barely--up the 30" wide staircase. The only thing to consider now is how the movers will navigate the shallow turns up the stairs, but this would be why I would consult professionals.

* The name "The Company Store" always makes me start humming "Company Book."

The ottomans are definitely cute, but Scout completes the picture. :)
