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 different rooms of your home plus my favorite stylish X-base stool picks! (post includes commissionable links; for more information, see my full disclosure statement {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 camp stools similar to {these} 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:

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

As an added plus, these 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 stools:
