London is still leaving us with cold temperatures and most of the time we just want to stay inside. That’s why this is a great time to get started with reading all of those books that you got over Christmas, or just all the books you don’t really have the time to read usually. Soon enough spring will be here and there will be no excuses for not wanting to spend every second outside, so allow yourself some alone time this February in a cosy chair with a book.

This week’s mood board is an inspiration to how you can create your own reading nook in your home.

 

A comfortable armchair, sofa or bed is essential for a good reading nook. We love this light brown vintage style armchair from Newport, which adds a rustic feeling and a feeling of history to the reading space. For more comfort, cushions, blankets and a hot water bottle are all important details. Good books are obviously the key to the experience but almost just as important is a good reading lamp, such as this golden one. For an extra cosy experience a fireplace will always be a winner and if you have, why not get a log basket to go with it? Then all you need is your favourite drink and you’re all set. Enjoy!

P.s. If you need a book tip we’ve heard that Me before you by Jojo Moyes is a good one.
