X-Base Stools: Ideas For Using Them In Your Home

I love using X-base stools in our home because they’re such versatile decor pieces! Today I’m sharing the many ways that you can use them throughout your home plus my favorite stylish X-base stool picks! (post includes affiliate links; full disclosure statement available {here})

X-Base Stools in Bedrooms

One of my favorite spots for X-base stools is at the foot of a bed in bedrooms. It’s the perfect spot to place any decorative pillows you take off your bed at night or clothes you might re-wear the next day. It can also be a nice spot to sit while you’re putting on shoes or slippers. For twin beds, you’d need just a single stool at the end of the bed:

while a pair of stools looks best with larger beds. I use a pair of {these X-base camp stools} at the foot of the king bed in my own bedroom:

This is also a beautiful example of how much style X-base stools can add to the look of a bedroom:

X-Base Stools in Living Rooms

In family or living rooms, X-base stools such as {these} are perfect for extra seating:

As an added plus, these leather camp stools fold for easy storage when they’re not needed.

X-Base Stools in Entryways

I love open consoles in entryways and they’re the perfect spot to tuck a pair of X-base stools:

X-Base Stools in Bathrooms

X-base stools can also be used in bathrooms as a spot to sit or a place to lay your towels near your shower or bathtub:

Now that you’ve seen the many uses for X-base stools, I’ll share my favorite stools:
