Shoe Ottoman

Lilly PulitzerRousseau ottoman

Ottomans are so great because they often serve double (or triple) duty. I love that this one is secretly outfitted with 16 pockets for storing shoes (or other things!) and is lined with a pretty fabric that adds such a fun unexpected punch of color.

Portable Storage Baskets

A tote basket is a beautiful solution for containing and conveniently transporting files and/or project supplies from room-to-room.

I'm loving these hand-woven fair trade imports from Tango Zulu:

P.S. You can also use 'em as market totes, magazine holders, picnic baskets...there's a multitude of uses!
