You don’t have to have a sprawling estate to make space for a cozy reading nook. All it takes is somewhere cozy to sit in a space that’s dedicated just for diving into your favorite read. If you ask me, the only “don’t” for a reading nook, is having a tv in the space. Your reading nook should be a calming escape that helps you close out the outside world, and it’s hard to do that from the same couch you watch tv from. These reading nooks will inspire you to create your own cozy retreat no matter your square footage or style.

Erin Wheeler’s home is one of our forever favorites, but we especially love her upstairs reading nook. Erin used decals to create a fun, quirky space that is equally cozy and perfect for reading.
