Whimsical Book Nook (on the cheap!)

As soon as I saw the chairs that were picked out for the Mood Board Monday I knew exactly where I wanted to put this … in a reading nook.



I took the great Antwerp chair and added a bright rug from Home Decorators Outlet. I then picked out some black accessories from Ikea including a black bookshelf, side table and floor lamp. Oh, and I added a cute blue glass vase that I loved and was just $8.



Note: I originally thought this chair was less as that is what it came up as on Polyvore. It is actually $1,698.00! Holy cow!
The total cost of the rest of this whimsical and creative book nook = $263.00


I am linking up with Mood Board Monday! Join in the fun!



Happy Shopping!

  2. Mood Board? How cool. Is it what I think it is, just putting images together to come up with a virtual room where you wish you could hang out? CUTE!!!!

    Thanks for sharing in my SITS day on 10/29. I am STILL playing catch up!

  3. I love the rug with the chair too. I could see this in a comfy reading nook - the shelves filled with books, a foot stool, a throw and a cup of tea. :)

  7. I must apologize as I was just alerted to the fact that the chair itself is not $150! I am modifying post to reflect that!
