Chic Textures
Between the oh-so-soft knit blanket, fringed throw pillow, woven basket, sheepskin rug, and marble-top side table, this reading corner from M Loves M uses stylish textures to give the space an elevated feel (in an easy-to-create way). The finishing touches: Beachy wall art by Gray Malin and a leafy plant add subtle, serene pops of color.

Small but Mighty Space
Have an awkward corner in your house? This is the perfect way to make use of a space that seems like it's not big enough for anything, according to designer and blogger Emily Henderson. All you need is a strategically placed chair, a small accent table, an ottoman, and a reading lamp—and voilà! If your corner has a shelf or two, add visual interest with horizontally and vertically stacked books, plus sculptural objects.

Outdoor Escape
Who says a reading nook has to be indoors? If you have a patio or balcony, add a couple of throw pillows and a comfy blanket to a bench to create an al fresco reading space surrounded by fresh air and lush plants.

Bedtime Story Spot
Abby Lawson of Just a Girl and Her Blog added an extra-comfy touch to her bedroom corner with a cushy chair, standing lamp, and a petite side table (best paired with a vase of flowers). Just resist the temptation to let your reading spot become the "clothes chair" — you know the one.

Imagination Alcove
With clear acrylic racks to display beloved stories and a welcoming floor space decked out with pillows, this playful reading nook by First Sense Interiors is a foolproof way to get little ones excited about reading. But if you're looking to indulge your own imagination, this idea can be adapted for grown-ups; just swap in more adult-friendly design elements (and maybe a chair).
