Decorating Your Home With a Blue Ottoman

Bring serene style to your furniture collection with a blue ottoman. The color blue is known for adding a calming and relaxing effect to your space. As you explore our collection, you'll find ottomans and benches styled in blue shades like navy, aqua, slate and teal. While you browse each ottoman, pouf and cube available, think about how and where you might use each in your home to showcase your personal style.

How to Design Your Space with an Ottoman

Ottomans make a great accent piece in a living room, den or bedroom. You can pair an ottoman with a sofa, sectional or incorporate a statement chair. Use an ottoman as a comfy footrest when stretching your legs out. Set appetizers or decorative trays down and use the ottoman as a coffee table. Ottomans also make a useful utility seat, especially for large gatherings with family and friends. Stools, poufs and cubes all provide a similar purpose to an ottoman -- they offer additional seating in a room and add visual texture.

Browse our modern benches to find other living room ideas. Benches are just as versatile and can be displayed in several areas of the home. Place a bench in a foyer where guests can easily take their shoes on and off. If your bedroom is spacious enough, consider placing a bench at the end of the bed. This helps to anchor the look and feel of your room while showing off your style. A bench in the bedroom also makes a helpful spot to get ready for the day. Add a bench underneath a large window in a living room or in a wide hallway. The possibilities are endless.

Features of Ottomans and Benches

Many of our blue ottomans and benches are part of a collection, making it easy for you to coordinate your new piece with a sofa or a blue sectional. Consider the shape of the ottoman. Choose from rounded, rectangular and square options. When it comes to the style of an ottoman, first consider your design aesthetic. Bring elevated style to your space with an ottoman detailed with button-tufted texture. Other styles feature nail-head trim and turned legs. A scrolling stainless-steel base brings sleek, contemporary style to your room. Consider the legs of an ottoman too, such as those made with casters that make moving and rearranging it around a room much easier.

If you're not sure about a blue ottoman, browse other color options such as tan and cream ottomans and benches, which are more neutral in scope and can more easily mix and match with bold colors and dynamic patterns in your space.
