apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Audrey and Whitaker's Reading Nook

Proving that you don't need a lot of room to create a special place for enjoying books, Ohdeedoh reader Patti sent us these photos of the sweet reading nook she created using pillows on the floor and vintage book pages on the walls. Says Patti, "Our 1940s cottage has very limited space, so we picked a corner and cozied it out with pillows. The book art hanging from the ceiling was inspired by an article I saw in Cookie Magazine."
