Kays I love you so much! The other night was so much fun and it was so good to see you! I totally agree, I am now Bret's parrot!(didn't even realize tell after I wrote the sentence that I said totally! This is becoming a problem!) Love the white ottoman, but I do agree I think that it will get way dirty really fast and not just with shoe marks, but also with just the air and dust will make it start to fade. I do love the look though, that's a hard one! Also love the music video, totally good!!!

It sure is beautiful...but I would probably lose my mind trying to keep it clean. And for $1600 I'd probably have caution tape around it so no one could go near it :) LOL

I love the look of it though; the comment above is right - the dust and stuff in the air would make it look dingy after a while and all the button holes would be tough to keep clean.

There's a show on called, She's Crafty, and Wendy - the hostess - made an ottoman, white too. I can't find it online, but here's her website http://www.wendyrussell.com/
Anywho, she sanded down a small table, painted it white, put a firm thick piece of foam on top and then a white leather over it (stapling it to the underside of the table)

Don't do it!!! We got white bedding and it is already looking not bright and pretty white, and I hate it!!! it is impossible to keep clean, and I'm sure an ottoman would be ten times worse :( ugh find it in black or chocolate haha cuz I LOVE it!
