Reading nooks

Comfy couches, huge windows, fireplace, bookshelves that are high enough to require a library ladder… sigh… nope sorry, can’t find a single thing wrong with this setup.  Except for the fact it’s not mine.  I even like the dog.

The full house was originally published in an issue of Traditional Home, but I found it on Autumn Clemons design blog.

What a great way to make use of an interesting architectural feature.  Throw rug, couple of pillows and some candles and you’re all set.

I do love the use of colour behind the shelves on this reading nook.  The blog (link below) shows a step by step on the makeover.

I love that this image shows classic styling doesn’t have to be stuffy.  Aside from being a great place to curl up that bird pillow is just fun!

I love love love this little reading nook.  It appeals to my love of vintage, my habit of sticking random things to walls and to my habit of having books piled up all over the place.  Actually I love the entire house – check it out below.

Especially for Alison who dreams of reading in a hammock.  So many hammock images were beach ones but I loved the thought of reading whilst floating on the top of a bed of lavender.
