We’re crushing on these stylish storage stools from Aldi – and they come in pink!

Metallic legs? Velvet finish? Jewel tones? Tick. Tick. Tick.

If you're after an easy, on-trend and – most importantly – functional decor update for your home this autumn, look no further than these pretty storage stools from Aldi. Not only do they serve as an extra seat and a footrest, but they're also handy for hiding away your clutter when unannounced guests appear (our parents being the only people who still do this in the age of WhatsApp). We're also thinking that they could bring a new and peaceful era by becoming the ONLY spot where the TV remote is kept. What we're most excited by, however, is the fact that the lid of the stools can be turned over to convert them into a table, with a wipeable top. Since we're not big lovers of having a clunky coffee table taking up all of the floor space in our living room, these will finally give us somewhere to put the many cups of tea required when the parents pop in. (Still unannounced.) Being pretty is is well and good when it comes to interiors, but our hearts are captured by multifunctional pieces. After all, who doesn't love a good three-in-one? The stools are available in two darker shades – grey and teal – as well as powder pink, which was the shade that all interiors lovers were crushing on this year. If you're the kind who likes to keep your measuring tape handy, their dimensions are approximately 45 x 38 x 38cm and the storage capacity is 44 litres. The stools cost €29.99 and will be available in 139 Aldi stores nationwide from Sunday, 15^th September. Also hitting Aldi stores that day are similarly on-trend hanging frames, wire shelving and woven floor rugs. The range also includes faux mohair throws with hassled edges, €14.99, that come in four colours and look perfect for snuggling up in on the couch – with your feet or your cuppa on your new stool.
