The casual style of poufs -- also called ottomans, hassocks, or footstools -- livens up any decor, and I plan to mix and match several in the small living room space in our new Boston digs. The perfect pouf is firm enough to serve as extra seating, but not so heavy that it can't be moved easily around the room. The pouf in the top left photo is the traditional Moroccan style; my favorites are the Indian-style ones with tassels, though the tassels might prove too tempting for my cats. I found all of the poufs in the photo on Etsy, a wonderful site featuring handmade and vintage items. If you were going to pick two or three, which ones would you choose?

Kalyn, me too!
Mary, I can picture how great these must look in your space. I'm waiting until we move before I make my final selection.
