Thanks Ritual for partnering on this video!
I am re-doing the reading nook and making it even better this time around! A lot of you suggested I add a bookshelf, so that's exactly what we're doing today and also adding in a custom bench with a DIY no-sew bench cushion. And now, I am just 100% happier with the new reading nook! What do you guys think?

Okay, not gonna lie, the first makeover of this space didn’t feel quite right. This is much better! I totally love it!

@mohdafiqmatrazai7168 Жыл бұрын

I definitely love the new nook. Personally speaking, the leather armchairs would definitely complement the place and I'd put them there as well for extra seatings, plus the tall lamp as well.

I could see the two chairs and table across from the bench, creating a little conversation area when you are entertaining. Just a thought. It turned out very well. Tina. Love what you are doing to the basement so far.

I'm thinking if she put the chairs across from the bench, she could sit in a chair and put her feet up on the bench while reading. 😁

This version look much more cozy and functional. I would like to make only one suggestion. A small table/ plantstand (just large enough for a cup and snack) to give you a place to place a cup of tea while you are reading and snuggling in.

To be honest I hated that marble table but loved the leather armchairs. I like it better now but would like to see the chairs back 😀. In any case enjoy reading 😀

I love the DIY chairs but honestly I think they would be a good seating area near the bar. Version 2 is by far the vibe for a reading nook.

I really liked the chairs you DIYed but this does feel a lot cosier and the bookcase is awesome, a definite win 🤩 I bet you’re more comfy having a little read on that bench than you were sat on those chairs ☺️ Thanks for keeping it real and showing that you can change your mind and create something more suitable for the space and for yourself ✨💜

@Nina-zv5cg Жыл бұрын

LOVE! This is such an improvement on the first makeover, honestly looked like a waiting room and now looks so cozy! Only yhing I would change is the bookshelf, I think it would look so much more cozy with a warm wood tone rather than navy. But still looks really cool!

@elodiecorea7798 Жыл бұрын

Totally agree. Even though the global look is much better than the first version, the shelf and the bench look like 2 separate unmaching pieces. It would probably make the space feel bigger and more cohesive if they were in similar colors.

@nikkikenny1165 Жыл бұрын

I think this could be my favourite makeover you've done, could be because I'm a book nerd and would love a reading nook but I also just think it shows a lot of growth in your style, design and confidence in your skills! SO GOOD!

@robynsnest22 Жыл бұрын

I think if you put the two painted chairs back in, facing towards your bench and bookshelf, it could be totally a cosy little spot that both you and Brian could enjoy at the same time. The DIY shelf and bench turned out great, just think having the chairs facing this, would be more seating and cozy.

you should put a rug in front of the bench and the arm chairs on either side with the marble table in the middle of them, such a cute seating area and would go great with the bar you made.
