10 Cute and Comfy Tiny Seats

Inviting friends over for a chat or a quick meal involves prepping the living and dining areas for serious catching up. While you can always have guests occupy these two areas, there are instances when you’ll need an extra chair or two for unexpected visitors. If you have an open layout where every inch of space counts, adding huge accent chairs might not be an option. The solution? Stylish stools, lounges, and ottomans that are inviting and functional. Here are options you can consider:
