Another House Project ... Reading Nook

When we moved in, there was quite a bit of wasted space is this house. The first being the huge room behind the kitchen, where we are currently expanding our kitchen into and another being a six foot hallway outside Reagan's bedroom. This hallway can be shut off from the rest of the house, making a nice little nook attached to Reagan's room. The bathroom is also in this hallway, so again, it makes a nice "suite" for guests and a soon to be (I know, far off) teenager. 

Back in August 2010, Scott built a bench in this little hallway. This bench was designed as seating for "growing" girls to hangout on while primping in the bathroom. It has been useful for lots of things, such as smaller kids who need a place to nap, to a bench to sit on and read.

Well, here we are, almost 2 years later, we have finally completed the nook. We had the bench and foam for 2 years, but thanks to our dear Aunt Sunny, we know have a custom made seat and pillows. It is so cozy and a perfect place for the girls to relax and read.
