SOFT OPTIONS OTLEY

16/10/2026

Yesterday apart from eating the most amazing Tiramisu, I met with a group of inspiring women and yes had chats about current projects but also had 2 hours out of The Soft Options world to come together with people who understand what running a small business is like. At the end of the lunch our school runs commenced, rugby practice was our main concern but out of this a little time out is what you need to give yourself the encouragement to carry on with a career that you love.

New window pending… it has been a busy week behind the scenes at Soft Options planning our summer window. Our window on Westgate is important to the shop not only to show new collections but also to express what we are all about. We allow our window displays to highlight multiple brands and show how different textures,colours and patterns really do allow individuality which in turn create fabulous home interiors.

This Sunday marks the start of the astronomical summer so what better than a colourful wallpaper complimented by fabulous paint colours and a classic stripe fabric. For those who are not as bold the wallpaper comes in more muted tones. Visit our shop in Otley for more wallpaper inspiration ☀️

Happy Friday ! Now wouldn’t it be nice if all bath times included a glass of fizz. This flashback is to a couple of years ago when we featured the fabulous Temperley x Romo collection in our window.

We love it when a vision comes together. This customer wanted to create truly unique pieces that encapsulated the colours, textures and patterns which were present in the room.
We can help with upholstery and lampshades which is sometimes all a room needs to give it a lift or as we like to say “a little Juj”

Busy morning today in the shop creating this fabulous new scheme for a open plan kitchen. The vibrant patterns placed with the deep paint tones really do add a different dimension to a large area.
