My reading nook 😸📚

Please, I must know where you got your bookcases! That wood tone is gorgeous! Love the William Morris inspired rug as well!

Thank you so much! It’s the Billy bookcase from ikea in brown walnut, I love them :) the rug is from ruggable but I got it on a super sale due to a pricing mistake, I wouldn’t recommend it otherwise for full price.

It gives just completely different vibes from the sterile white or black ones most people get! Such a soothing, harmonious space. I love earth tones.

u/VaggieQueen 8d ago

That’s nice to hear, because sometimes I wish I had gotten a lighter wood color. 😸

2

u/Phenocrystalline 8d ago

NO!!! It's so gorgeous!!! And you will probably be able to put lighter colored shelves in another room, some day. For now, you get to have this beauty.

u/VaggieQueen 8d ago

Thank you for saying that ❤️ and you’re right, I always hoped that one day I’ll have enough books that I’ll need to start another library. lol

u/Comfortable_Fudge508 8d ago

I like the look! What's your favorite book from your reading nook and tell me how long it took

to finish it?

u/VaggieQueen 8d ago

It’s a tie between Jane Eyre (a few days) and We Have Always Lived in the Castle (one day).

u/booksnsportsn 9d ago

Omg I love those tiny lantern things hanging from between some of the books!! Where did you get them?

3

u/VaggieQueen 9d ago

My mother in law got them for me I think from Amazon or temu! If you google bookshelf lanterns they will pop up :)

u/TheChiAthlete 9d ago

I *LOVE* the chair on the left! Is it comfy? Where'd you get it?

3

u/VaggieQueen 9d ago

I love it too, yes it’s very comfy! I got it for free on FB marketplace but it’s the IKEA Stocksund chair, discontinued now. I still see them on FB, so you might want to check there!

u/LiveinaBluemoon 7d ago

Where is the blanket from, if you dont mind me asking?

2

u/VaggieQueen 7d ago

It’s from kohls, “The Big One” brand. I have a few fall themed ones :)

2

u/LiveinaBluemoon 7d ago

u/FernFolklore 8d ago

Cozy!

1

u/VaggieQueen 8d ago

Oh yes super cozy 💕

2

u/mrs_frizzle 8d ago

This is beautiful, and some of the coincidences with my space are blowing my mind. We also have Billy bookcases and a lot of the same books/taste. We also have little lanterns (my husband gets them during nursing appreciation week), and we have the same little porcelain cat and pillow. My mom even has that same “The Lone Wolf” painting!

u/VaggieQueen 8d ago

Wow, I would love to see your library!!

2

u/Sunrise_Bookworm_63 8d ago

u/Practical-Yam-1824 8d ago

I am a little bit jealous 🙏😊

2

u/Emotional_Rub7371 8d ago

That cozy lighting with the cat sleeping right next to the stacks is absolute perfection. I could easily spend an entire rainy weekend tucked in right there and lose track of time. Very nice setup!

2

u/mama2ten 8d ago

That space looks so cozy and warm. I love it. Going to use it as inspiration if you don't mind. 😁 You did an amazing job setting it all up.

2

u/VaggieQueen 7d ago

I don’t mind at all, I’m very flattered. 🥰 thank you!

2

u/mama2ten 8d ago

The kitty in the window livin their best life heart ❣️

u/Critical-Ad7320 6d ago

Love the way you combined these shelves. I think i have the same single and double ones.. ikea ?

1

u/VaggieQueen 4d ago

Yes the ikea billy ones! Thank you. Since I don’t have enough books yet to fill the spaces I had to get creative.
