Have a Seat ... Or Three

Have I shown you one of our more recent acquisitions for the home? A 1960s trio of stackable stools:

I was considering buying a set of floor pillows for the living room, but I like these from Nancy Boy even better. You can sit on them individually or, when stacked, they make one regular-height seat.

When we bought the stools, the cushions were covered in a ho-hum fabric. They didn't have any ties on the bottom, so they would slip off the wood bases too easily. We enlisted Madina's help to update them — going with a simple pattern (Betwixt, one of Celerie Kemble's designs for Schumacher) in a colorway that would allow them to fit into pretty much any room in the house. I think they are so cute!
