    Thanks Ritual for partnering on this video!
    I am re-doing the reading nook and making it even better this time around! A lot of you suggested I add a bookshelf, so that's exactly what we're doing today and also adding in a custom bench with a DIY no-sew bench cushion. And now, I am just 100% happier with the new reading nook! What do you guys think?

    Okay, not gonna lie, the first makeover of this space didn’t feel quite right. This is much better! I totally love it!

  • @mohdafiqmatrazai7168
    @mohdafiqmatrazai7168 Год назад +122

    I definitely love the new nook. Personally speaking, the leather armchairs would definitely complement the place and I'd put them there as well for extra seatings, plus the tall lamp as well.

    • @emleithead5731
      @emleithead5731 Год назад +4

      And a rug! Would make it super cozy as I reckon with the other chairs and the lamp 😍

    • @donnabacon4681
      @donnabacon4681 Год назад

      Thinking the same thing; just in front of the nook, facing the wall, etc...

  • @pamelajohnson4989
    @pamelajohnson4989 Год назад +63

    I could see the two chairs and table across from the bench, creating a little conversation area when you are entertaining. Just a thought. It turned out very well. Tina. Love what you are doing to the basement so far.

    This version look much more cozy and functional. I would like to make only one suggestion.
    A small table/ plantstand (just large enough for a cup and snack) to give you a place to place a cup of tea while you are reading and snuggling in.

  • @kampiJean
    @kampiJean Год назад +64

    To be honest I hated that marble table but loved the leather armchairs. I like it better now but would like to see the chairs back 😀. In any case enjoy reading 😀

  • @1stepcl0ser
    @1stepcl0ser Год назад +19

    i personally liked the first makeover better because i feel like it would be awkward to sit on the bench and read?? but the first one was missing the bookshelf!! either way, they look nice. happy reading!

  • @beth170
    @beth170 Год назад +14

    I love the DIY chairs but honestly I think they would be a good seating area near the bar. Version 2 is by far the vibe for a reading nook.

  • @nancyfailor1752
    @nancyfailor1752 Год назад +10

    The new reading nook is absolutely beautiful! The bench looks comfortable and has plenty of room to curl up and read a good book. Thank you for sharing all your great projects with us, looking forward to your next video.

  • @lindaadams9006

  • @erinwhitaker2699
    @erinwhitaker2699 Год назад +8

    What will you do with the painted chairs? I kept waiting for them to come back into this space in a conversation area across from the bench. Either way, your nook is great!

  • @MaeFletch
    @MaeFletch Год назад

    I'm lowkey so glad for this update! I love being all cozied up when I read and the previous nook looked so rigid and formal. The bench feels like such a better option for cozy times 😊

    Loving version 2. It feels complete. First version was beautiful but this is more my style. Great job Tina

  • @elinakatarii
    @elinakatarii Год назад +2

    I really liked the chairs you DIYed but this does feel a lot cosier and the bookcase is awesome, a definite win 🤩 I bet you’re more comfy having a little read on that bench than you were sat on those chairs ☺️ Thanks for keeping it real and showing that you can change your mind and create something more suitable for the space and for yourself ✨💜

  • @taintyjana
    @taintyjana Год назад +4

    Now that's pretty looking. The chairs and the table would also complement I think. Cozy book it looks ❤️ loved it tina 🎉

  • @robynsnest22
    @robynsnest22 Год назад +1

    I think if you put the two painted chairs back in, facing towards your bench and bookshelf, it could be totally a cosy little spot that both you and Brian could enjoy at the same time. The DIY shelf and bench turned out great, just think having the chairs facing this, would be more seating and cozy.

    So cute and definitely an upgrade! Beautiful work as always. I feel like you could totally bring those faux leather chairs and stone table back in, then add a rug to create a little reading corner & conversation area. The styles totally go together!

    LOVE! This is such an improvement on the first makeover, honestly looked like a waiting room and now looks so cozy! Only yhing I would change is the bookshelf, I think it would look so much more cozy with a warm wood tone rather than navy. But still looks really cool!

    • @elodiecorea7798
      @elodiecorea7798 Год назад +1

      Totally agree. Even though the global look is much better than the first version, the shelf and the bench look like 2 separate unmaching pieces. It would probably make the space feel bigger and more cohesive if they were in similar colors.

  • @lauranewton353

    I think you could probably have cut the top of the bench a little and the front and bottom of the drawer to fit in. Then put everything together. 😊 Maybe it would be less work and less money? Idk just a suggestion. Love everything as always!
