Ideas For This Space?

i have that leaf over my son's bed. He has a Very Hungry Caterpillar room.

What a cute idea!

I literally just took this picture and loaded it onto my computer to send to dh because I'm trying to figure out if I like the fence decoration or not. I emailed him then started reading messages here. Thought it was funny to find discussion on cozy corner and Ikea decorations right after I took a picture of mine.

This is our cozy corner or book corner or whatever-I-end-up-calling-it-corner. It's in a corner of our living room, which is kinda small, but is now dedicated to preschool/daycare use. Our couches, tv, etc. have been relocated to a bonus room.

I just hope the decorations hold up.

I love your little area. I think the fence looks so cute!

Check this out: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/60054636/. I think it is the cutest thing ever! One provider had them attached to the wall hanging over the cribs. I was going to steal her idea and put one in my reading area, attached to the wall. And they are fairly cheap too! You could put a bookshelf and a few pillows, nice and cozy!
I am sure you could make one, but I'm not that creative!

I have this over my book nook! I love it!

Have the canopy, some comfy pillows, stuffed animals, book case and a very small area rug from Ikea, think it was $5.00 and its shag. My dog sleeps on it and I can never see his hair..

Ok, I love your book nook, I'm going to have to get one! They look so cute in all the pictures that I have seen!

Thanks! Looks like I mounted my leaf a lot lower than Brooksie did. Hope I don't end up regretting that!

I love the little rug! Something else to add to my wish list!

Maybe instead of a little rug having a welcome/goodbye mat.

I mounted mine so high because of the stairs and lighting. I didn't want the view blocked from the steps and my lamp is pretty tall. I also planned on, and now use the small wall space for our daily schedule. I think yours looks nice and cozy! I love the fence! I also like the idea of being able to mount it lower, I like the effect it gives better for some reason but I would be worried about kids messing with it. I have a really young group though- 3 and under.

I have the Ikea leaves as well. I have a HUGE teddy bear that we got from Vermont Teddy Bear (a gift), and a book shelf. I separated the area with Ikea Expedit Units. I use the 4x4 one as a changing table.

This is also the area that I trap the babies in when the older kids are dancing and running around.

I think this is y favorite area in our playroom.

That's really cute. I got a used crib mattress last night and will go searching for throw pillows or something to make it look like a daybed when done. I do like the idea of the leaf canopy so I'll be watching for one.
