Reading Nook Inspiration

Our little guy's room has this funky little alcove carved into one of its corners and I've been dying to turn it into a little reading nook for him.

Originally I had just planned to have the hubs build a little bench for reading with some built-in storage underneath. Something like one of these...

But then Jacob had the brilliant idea to turn the alcove into a reading loft, since our little guy loves his brother's bunk bed so much. So we're in the planning phase right now, but are thinking of something a little like some of these...

Once the loft is built, I think it'd be pretty cool to add some fun privacy curtains too. Like these...

So that's the plan for now...

With 3 three-year-olds running around, it's a little hard to actually get much done around here!
