My husband and I decorated the great room in our new home in a clean modern style, going with slate, stainless steel, and light grey tones. We opted for a cool, muted base palette planning for pops of colour in a few interesting pieces. Enter holeySTUMPS and they look great! What we weren't expecting is how useful the stumps are for us and our kids on a daily basis-- stools for lunch, boosters for getting to the top shelves, side tables, nooks and crannies for toys while our girls play...needless to say, we are very pleased with our purchase.
