love all these nooks! I've a vision for a claw-foot bathtub filled with pillows. now to find the vessel :)

my kids read everywhere - but the idea of a special place is so delicious...

i love the claw-foot tub idea! :^) i have seen them for sale very inexpensively in my area; i even saw one in a florist's shop that was free for the taking!

i agree, estea, my kids also read everywhere -- but there is nothing like a special little corner or hideaway spot dedicated to reading. jane eyre in the window seat! :^)

I love the green and the paper lanterns! It's colourful and fun yet spare and calm. Wonderful.

Thank you, Poppins! I agree re: spare and calm .. reading is a quiet act, after all .. it requires a calming space, don't you think? :^)
