Steps
-
Find a good spot to make your nook, like a corner, alcove, tiny space, or even your closet. It may be necessary to give a different layout to the bedroom.This way, you will open up potentially good spaces for the nook.Choose a place that is as quiet as possible.You won't have to be disturbed by annoying noises, such as a radio or television, because here you will take a break from the world.
-
Choose an armchair: it is a fundamental step.Decide which one you want.Do you want a very soft one to get sucked in?Or one that allows you to curl up?Do you prefer a pile of cushions on the floor or a bean bag?Or would you like to lie down on a chaise longue to doze off and dream of being somewhere else?
-
Buy a table or nightstand for the nook. It will help keep it tidy and give you space to place a cup or book when you're away.It is also useful to add a small pen holder and a notebook, to seize the moments when reading will inspire you.
-
Light up the space. If possible, try to opt for a variable lighting system.Another solution is to buy a desk lamp.It shouldn't be blinding, but too dim a light will make it harder to read.During the day, natural light is preferable, but if it is too bright you should close the curtains or shutter slightly to prevent it from illuminating the corner too much.In short, the lighting should be good, but also allow you to create an intimate place to daydream.
-
Make it comfortable. This factor is of vital importance for the nook.It should draw you in and encourage you to curl up from time to time.It should give you a feeling of softness and have a consistency that inspires you to go there.Surround yourself with things that make you feel comfortable, like a blanket or soft pillows.Use colors, geometries and textures that make you feel safe and warm.Avoid everything you don't like or that gives you uncertain feelings.
-
If possible, divide the nook from other parts of the room. All you need to do is arrange a low chest of drawers perpendicular to a wall to give an idea of division, otherwise you can also make a more complex choice and hang curtains around the nook.This way, you will feel that it belongs to you, and it will prevent others from invading your privacy.
-
Do you have a very small room and you don't know where to create the nook or do you think it's impossible to create one? Don't worry!If you don't have much space, experiment by moving furniture here and there.Once you have been drawn into the world of a book, you will generally pay no attention to this factor.A little corner where you can curl up is ideal.Don't have room for an armchair?Then get a large pillow or several medium-sized pillows.
-
Customize and improvise to fit the space and your needs. Have fun using your imagination to create something new and remember that this corner should reflect what you want.
-
Make sure you set aside some time to read after putting so much effort into making the nook. No, you don't have to be there all the time, but, believe it or not, reading is good for your health.Advertising
