Bedside Book Storage

080709sidetable-02.jpgSometimes life gets super busy and there's no extra time to enjoy a good book before bed. An hour carved out for this simple activity can make a hectic week just a teeny bit more tolerable...

 
 

So you can imagine our happiness when we spotted Rachel's bedside chair ensemble. A charming chair stacked with books and topped off with a reading light makes this spot efficient. By having plenty of books nestled by the bed, getting yourself into bed becomes the only worry. And while this spot feels warm and comfortable, we like how easy it is to rearrange. Fold up is a breeze and the lightweight nature of the lamp makes it easy to move if need be. Not to mention the bedside chair is a great option when bookshelf space is running low.

I must have my books in the shelf unless I'm reading them. Sitting them next to the bed on a chair would give me tremors.

But, admittedly, it's a cute little space. :]

eww, that chair is hideous next to the bed. it just looks messy & chaotic. there are definitely better choices out there for bedside book storage.

the embroidered toss cushion is from ikea. saw it there.
