Ottoman fantasy

I'm a huge fan of the humble ottoman.
There are so many shapes, sizes & styles around, not to mention fabric choices.

Unfortunately we are spatially challenged in our rental & there doesn't appear to be room for an ottoman any where, but right now these are the ones i am fantasizing about.

What do you think?

A change is well overdue


Source BHG

I don't know about you, but even though the Zebra rug has been done to death over the past couple of years, I still love it!!!

I think by the time I get my dream house the trend will have well & truly passed me by & I will miss out on having one for myself,
BUMMER!!!

I'm sure there will be an equally divine new trend to sooth my decorating soul!!


 After 2yrs of having 4 properties listed for sale in the one town, all with good tenants and priced competitively for the local market, you would think at least something would have sold by now.
But we haven't managed to sell a single house.....

I think we need to change our real estate agent.
 Property data tells us that the average time a house is on the market in Lithgow is FIVE MONTHS. Its a small town & we have had FOUR on the market for TWO years.
WHAT THE.......

What do you think, are we trusting fools that should have swapped agents at least a year ago?
