The footstool started out as something practical, but over the years it has evolved into something simply "decor". Over time, the theme of footstools seemed pretty consistent: small, made of wood, used as a foot-propper or a stair-stepper. Today the footstool is emerging as a separate class of furniture in its own right. It can now be used as something to sit on, place something on, hide something in, or as a decorative piece for an entire room.
With a choice so wide there is no better place to search for your new footstool than on the Internet. The range is large enough to satisfy any discerning furniture shopper and with fabric or leather footstools to choose from online shopping is unsurpassed. The footstool can be ordered in various sizes. Its shape can be organised to fit into the smallest or largest of spaces and the height of the footstool can be varied by an excellent choice of appropriate legs and feet. No suite of sofas and chairs should ever be without a footstool.
The footstool should be a central point of relaxation, becoming an oasis of calm after yet another weary day at work. Even if you can only grab yourself a few minutes of “quality time” ensure that you gather up your footstool and take the weight off your feet just for a few moments.
Style is also an important part of choosing a footstool, since you will want the piece to compliment the rest of your decor. Will a boxy footstool that is flush with the ground co-ordinate better with the clean lines of your existing furniture, or is your style more traditional, making a footstool with carved legs a better choice?
When selecting a footstool it is a good idea to apply pressure to it or to sit down on it to make sure it is sturdy. Don't forget to measure the width of the footstool to make sure it won't be too large and feel awkward in your space. Measure the height as well to ensure that your feet will rest comfortably when sitting on your chair or sofa. Price is a consideration and the internet provides the ideal platform from which to compare the market place. In this way you will soon find the perfect footstool custom designed to your taste, specifications, and your budget.
No matter where you decide to purchase your footstool, or even if you decide to build one yourself, function, style, and value are the key elements to bear in mind prior to making that all important purchase descision.

Footstools and the Erotic
The perfect solution for large rooms is to present a bench footstool. Whether for practical purposes or simply as a gift, bench footstools or “benchstools” combine elements of size and practicality to help make your room complete as they offer both style and functionality.
Not only can two or more people use a benchstool as a footrest they can employ it for seating or to function as a low table. Originally bench stools were modified furniture pieces or contraptions used for various judicial corporal punishments and erotiscism.
The 19th century dominatrix, Mrs. Theresa Berkley became famous for her invention of the Berkley Horse, a multi-functional device which combined being a spanking bench with several other functions. Berkley, made an estimated £15000 (£1.5 million in todays money) during the eight years in which she operated her flagellatory brothel in Charlotte Street, London.
The spanking bench or spanking horse was a piece of furniture whereby a spankee was
positioned for punishment, with or without restraints. The spanking bench was employed in the practice of erotic spanking with either Mrs Berkley or one of her female operatives supervising the practice of sadomasocichistic activity over her (largely) male clientele.
Fetish benchstools have developed over time and come in many sizes and styles, the most popular of which is similar to the original sawhorse with a padded top and rings for restraints. They are located in clubs where the spanking community socialise to enjoy their unique and fascinating activities, away from the prescence of "prying eyes".
Many such items currently available to buy on the net and are designed to perfectly coordinate with room colour schemes. Appropriate bench and footstools combine the practicality of hardwearing yet easy to clean faux leather. Fine upholstery and workmanship add to the allure of these erotic stools whether they are applied to significant recreational activity or are seen as pieces of artistic furniture.
