What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Between Naps on the Porch to Craving Cozy
Books, check. Velvet pillow and a warm blanket, check. Beautiful rug and wing-back chairs covered in rich, brown leather...yep, it's all here. This library/dining room runneth over with coziness. I could hibernate all winter right here.
added by Between Naps on the Porch to Long, Cold Winter Days—Bring 'em On!
Reading is an excellent way to pass the time during long winter months. Stock up on all the bestsellers and enjoy the adventures while snug as a bug in your warm, cozy house. Hot chocolate is optional, but heavily suggested.
added by Becky Harris to Put Your Feet Up: A Dozen Overstuffed and Comfy Rooms
The leather-bound library aesthetic is always inviting. I can practically smell some academic's pipe smoke when I look at this room.
