Reading Corners and Their 5 Essentials April 24 2016
Every family room, every living room, every den, baby's room, bedroom, even kitchen should include a place to sit, sip and read. These special corners quickly become family favorites, where once you settle in, you're in a separate place of calm and joy - on a little vacation - no matter the mayhem going on around you.

Maybe you've got a little one curled up in your lap reading Goodnight Moon. Maybe you can't wait to get to the next chapter of a great novel, or, not as fun, you've got some work from the office to review. In any case, it all gets better with a comfortable, dedicated place for peace.

Essential to the well appointed reading corner are these 5 things:
1. A comfy chair
2. A side table
3. A light source
4. A piece of art or mirror to group the vignette
5. A pillow or throw for warmth and beauty

Some additional pieces to think about for your reading corner are an ottoman (to rest those feet) and an area rug (to help define the space).
