Ahh, the reading nook. Even though you probably don’t need a dedicated reading spot— book nerds are famous for cracking open pages whenever and wherever the mood strikes them — there’s just something about having an Instagram-ready reading spot. Whether you’re designing your first reading nook or looking to upgrade, you can take your home library to the next level with these reading nook finds under $50.
First, let me apologize. Try as I might, I just couldn’t find a comfy reading nook chair under $50 to add to this list. Don’t fret, though, because I’ve picked out the perfect bookshelves, storage ottoman, and one of those all-too-essential reading lamps for readers on a budget.
With that out of the way, let’s just say that most of these picks run a little…luxe. My goal here was to give you Dom Pérignon vibes on a Natural Light budget, and I think I’ve succeeded.
But my idea of ritzy reading glamour may not match yours! So I’ve made sure to include ideas for every design style, from minimalism to maximalism and everything in between. Regardless of what kind of look you’re after, I’m sure you’ll find something to love on this list of reading nook finds under $50.
