There is no such thing as having too much storage, especially when it comes to clothes, sheets, and blankets. While closet shelving or a large dresser can do the trick, consider opting for furniture pieces with hidden compartments that can pull double duty in a bedroom.
An upholstered bench that sits at the end of the bed offers a comfortable place to sit, but they’re especially useful when they open up to reveal storage space inside. This velvet ottoman from Kelly Clarkson’s Wayfair collection does just that. The best part? It’s on sale in all four colors for up to 29 percent off.

The Gloria Velvet Ottoman is just as stylish as it is functional. The upholstery has a tufted lid and stitched pattern along the sides and top for an added element of texture and interest, and it comes in four colors: dark green, blush, cobalt blue, and charcoal gray. Its rectangular shape sits flush against the foot of a bed, and its tapered wooden feet give the modern glam piece a touch of rustic charm.
This combination of a plush velvet material mixed with the wooden base allows the bench to function in a variety of homes, including those with modern, rustic, or French country styles. The piece is 52 inches wide by 18 inches tall, making it wide enough to sit two people comfortably, and the inner storage space is 8 inches high by 17 inches deep, which is large enough to hold “several blankets or extra pillows,” according to a reviewer.
More than 1,100 shoppers give this bench a five-star rating, including one who said it offers “great storage and enhances the beauty of any room in your home.” Another person, who uses the bench in a guest bedroom, noted that it holds “at least nine bath towels, hand towels, and washcloths.”
A third customer called this a “great sitting bench,” which they use while “getting ready, packing,” and “folding clothes.” It can also be placed in an entryway or living room to offer more seating options or storage spaces.
