Seven More Cozy Nooks To Love

Three years ago, I did a quick piece on one of my favorite design elements...nooks! To this day, it remains one of my most popular posts.  At first, this sort of surprised me, since there really isn't much to it, but then I gave this some more thought and realized that it actually makes sense.  I think most people crave warm and cozy spaces and really want their homes to feel that way.  Seeing built in reading nooks, banquettes and window seats evokes the very essence of this feeling...at least it does for me. That's why I love these spots so much, especially in the fall, when that "home is everything" nesting instinct really kicks in.  Are you feeling it too?
