Dream Reading Nook

Some furnishing images from Arhaus Furniture


Had some fun making a board of cozy elements I'd incorporate if I were to create my dream reading space.

 I love soothing grays, soft blues and natural stone colors. I mostly like to sit when I read, and this recliner looks uber comfortable. I can just picture myself in it, book in hand, with my feet curled under me or reclined, feet up. But you know, sometimes a gal likes to lay down and read.
