I’m sure there are moms who can keep everything tidy all the time. Who can have white furniture and clear countertops. Who can have end tables adorned with fragile pieces of expensive decor and sharp edged-coffee tables lined with trendy magazines. Possibly their children sit on the white linen couch and patiently listen to classical music while mom cooks a three-course meal. I’ve heard these moms are real. Shout out to these moms and from the bottom of my heart, I mean it when I say more power to them. 

I am not one of these moms. My reality is quite the opposite. I don’t keep end or coffee tables by our living room couch because my three kids love to jump on everything and who has time for an E.R. visit? Who has time to sweep up broken vases? Who has time to fix broken coffee table legs? You get the picture. Anything fragile would be knocked over on the first day I set it out as the kids play ninjas on the couch. Magazines would have pages ripped out for some fantasy game they come up with. This is my life and I embrace it. We have an open floor plan so I can keep an eye on them in our living room while I cook but not such a close eye I could prevent every accident. 

At the same time, I do like my house to look nice. I love our couch and our decorative pillows, while child-friendly-ish, are nice for me to look at. But I have been keeping an open eye for a long time for an extra something for our living room. The thing about not having a coffee table is that people don’t have anywhere to prop their feet. And feet MUST be propped to really, truly enjoy a movie. 

Luckily, I came across Mark and Day and found the perfect solution to my living room woes. Check them out! 

These two poufs are the perfect addition for our family. They are exactly my style, match the living room perfectly, and the quality is excellent. They are a comfortable height as ottomans for a couch and fit nicely in the little nook of our sectional. They also provide extra seating when we have guests. 

 These are perfect for a family with young kids looking for an alternative to coffee tables. They aren’t fragile, so I don’t freak out when my kids use them to build forts as I cook dinner. Mark and Day has TONS of options for poufs. In fact, they have tons of options for practical, affordable, stylish home decor on their website and so many options for families with small kids. And if you are more of an organized-can-keep-my-house-in-order type, they have plenty of options for you as well. 

They also sell washable area rugs! If you have kids or pets, these washable rugs will make your life so much easier and they aren’t going to break the bank. You really can’t beat the prices for the quality here. AND they are currently running a promo for a free rug pad when you review their rugs. 

Another thing I really appreciate about Mark and Day is they make ordering extremely easy. They have warehouses in the U.S. and my order arrived within a few days. Did I mention that everything ships for free? They also included return labels with my order, which is so smart and convenient! How many times have you had to run around looking for a way to print out a return label, making this task so much harder than it needs to be? I think it speaks volumes about the value this company places on customer satisfaction that they would make it so easy for you to return your items if you aren’t pleased.
