Creating A Cozy Nook
Hi everyone!
A BIG Happy Friday to you!
On Fridays I always seem to have a spring in my step
{as corny as that sounds},
because I know I have the whole weekend to look forward to with my family:).
With the colder weather comes my need to NEST.
To come inside after it gets dark, to build a warm fire, snuggle under some cozy blankets, maybe have a little picnic,
watch a movie & just ENJOY the time together.
How about you?
Speaking of cozy…
I am all about that word this holiday season.
I thought I would share some progress with you as I get our home ready for the
cold weather & the holidays….
I added lots of natural textures- Faux Fur, wool plaid pillows and a cute burlap stag pillow,
they all give a sense of warmth to the small space.
Chalkboard Art-Lindsay Letters
I love using natural elements, such as fresh greens, birch logs and pinecones.
I am so in love with this chalkboard canvas!
And I am excited to tell you that Lindsay Letters is offering a
coupon code for FREE shipping-{LLCITYFARMHOUSE}!
Hope you have a spring in your step today too!

Have a beautiful weekend,
I love this. I wouldn’t mind sitting there drinking my morning coffee and checking my e-mails/blogs. I especially love the pillows. Did you make them?
Lisa, thank you! I made the plaid ones & bought the Stag Pillows from the NEST on Etsy. You made my day:)! Happy Friday! Jen
Love your cozy nook! Pinned!
You are awesome, thank you Julia!
It looks lovely Jen. Really cosy! Love seeing my pillow there – such an honour! Great use of a space which would otherwise not be used. X
Thank you sweet Sam!
And I love your pillows & those ornaments, LOVE!!! Thank you so much! Jen
love, love, love! I find myself using plaid a lot more this year, and I too added birch sticks to my decor. I love how this area came together. Just gorgeous
THank you Andrea! Plaid & Birch-good things:)! Happy Thanksgiving! Jen
Love this! So cozy and inviting! Love all of your little touches!
THank you! Happy Thanksgiving to you & your family! Jen
This is so pretty, Jen – I love everything about it!
Thank you Jen!
It really is a cozy spot. I have to check out the chalkboard print. I have yet to get one. I love the sentiment. I’m wish you, get with your family and enjoy each other. Happy early Thanksgiving.
Thank you Dana & you too, I hope you & your family have a Happy Thanksgiving! Jen
love it all…where did you get the canvas wood holder ?
Hi Bev, Thank you! I bought them at Home Goods for a steal:). Jen
Wonderful post, love your private little corner. I’d love to have one. Guess I could call my studio/pc room my private corner. I have a tv in here also so I can watch what I want while hubs watches whatever he wants in living room. At this time of year I miss tv in our room but we rarely watched it so finally took it out few years ago. I’d rather read a good book anyway in our wonderful cozy bed.
I love your pillows. I have some plaid flannel, not as bright and cheery as yours but it would work til I can get some. Time for some snuggly warm pillows on the couch. I already have my blanket on there
. We were at City Mkt. today (Krogers) where they had the big cushy blankets/throws with the fleece or sherpa on other side for $14.99. I want to get one of those for myself. With my cuddly pillows and that blanket, oh how nice.
As I’m typing it’s been snowing like crazy, started lightly this afternoon but by 5 it was starting to come down pretty heavy. I love the snow. HAPPY happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. You always inspired in some way.
THank you Jane Ellen for your sweet comment. The snow sounds kind of nice right now:). Be safe & Happy Thanks giving to you 7 your family too! Jen
Love it! that space looks so comfy and inviting 🙂
Thank you so much Dria! Have a great Sunday! Jen
Love it Jen! What a cozy little spot.
Absolutely gorgeous as always! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you Leslie, Happy Thanksgiving!
I love the plaid print–do you mind sharing where you got it?
Hi Stephanie, Sure, it is a throw from IKEA:).
Love! Did you get a custom frame made around the Lindsay’s letters canvas??? It looks great! I would love to do the same thing if you can pint me in the right direction!!
Hi Kelly, Just go to this site http://lindsayletters.com/collections/canvas/products/the-greatest-is-love-canvas-24-x-30, the frame came with it. Good luck, you will LOVE it!!! Happy Holidays! Jen
Love this! I definitely want to sit and stay awhile… 🙂 Popping over to visit from Savvy Southern Style.
This is, indeed, a cozy nook. I have some ribbon that would be a great match for your moose.
