Seating Selection For Cozy Small Spaces
For a cozy nook space select furniture that is plush, has upholstered arms and a cushioned back.
Or if it’s a bench nook – add a thick bench cushion.
Create Coziness With Pillows and Throws
Add comfort with lots of pillows and throw blankets.
These will provide warmth to cuddle up with and also visual interest, style and texture!
The Corner Nook
Create a cozy nook in an empty corner of a room.
This is a great use of space in a living room or bedroom.
Add a chair with an ottoman, ambient lighting with a table lamp, floor lamp or sconce and a side table to hold a snack or a drink.
Add a few small bookshelves or floating shelves to hold books and display decor!

Window Seat Nook
A window seat is the perfect spot to create a cozy nook!
Perfect for naps, a cup of coffee, admiring nature or reading.
Make sure there is a plush seat cushion to sit on and window treatments to block the sun.
