8 Essential Things to Turn a Small Corner into a Cosy Bohemian Reading Nook.
I say essential because there are so many possessions and comfy accents that you can cram into one corner.
Since the focus is on a small area where the rest of the room is already made up, I’m just going to show you the foundations.
There was a corner in my home office that I had absolutely no idea what to do with. It was such a small space. Most of the area was already taken up with inventory, office supplies and material storage... and of course my desk.
I then realised it would be the perfect spot for a little reading nook. Why? Because I've been needing something to encourage me to read more. I needed a place to take a proper work break that’s away from my computer screen.
It was a no brainer, creating a space that’s so inviting would mean I would actually use it. So it had to be cosy and in a bohemian style because I love filling my space with things I love, not what other people love.
What makes this even better is that I used things that I already had dotted around in other rooms. Bringing these pieces together meant my reading spot had the perfect balance of seamless function and personal decor.
So let me take you through how I transformed my empty corner to my dream reading nook.
I hope this has helped you with visually mapping out your own reading nook and provided you with some boho inspiration.
And in case you’re wondering what I’m reading right now…
It’s The Switch by Beth O’Leary. I only recently discovered her previous book (The Flatshare) had been made into a TV series. I loved it (both book and show). Because of that, I had to read The Switch.
I am close to finishing that book though. The next one on my list is The Versions of Us by Laura Barnett.
Happy Reading!
