Saw this on a blog - Laurie Harper's "Author Biz Sense" and thought it looked like a perfect place to read.

Signed up just to respond to ur post. The post I first saw had photo and specifically asked about sanded vs unsanded grout. I hope u didnt go w the cheapest bid! Wide grout joints require sanded grout. You can get away w unsanded if done right but will still have hairline cracks where grout meets tile. Either way joints that large must be done in stges. Good tile guy knows this. Ironically wide joints are generally a sign of bad (cheap) tile job. You or tile guy could have undone everything w water when you first noticed it was wrong. Even cleaning stove when grot was fresh no problem. Too bad, subs always scare me. No one trains anymore.Everything has been dumbed down or "home depoted". Loose the wide joints when u fix....looks cheap, yet wwon't be. Good luck recovering anything. You might think about a lein against contractor.

Yoyobon, I'm so glad he is enjoying them. The library where I used to work had a lot of them and the kids loved them.

I already have 2 end tables on each side of the room. These tables come handy for putting my computer on them, a phone, etc. I don’t have a sofa yet but I contemplating re-designing my reading and study nook. To lounge is to be a bit more sleepy and I need to be alert for my language study and writing projects.

I would start with a finish contractor to help design. As Patricia said, kids grow so size should be considered. I'd also make sure 2 people could comfortably sit - ie wouldn't you like to snuggle and read with your child and as they grow they'll want to sit it with their besties to share secrets!

If you go to the link below, you can see pictures of DD's new reading/writing spot.
You can also read her blog, which is of course brilliant. ;-)

I like DD's loft idea... Very cool.

The loft room trumped the fact that there is no dishwasher in the house. They had to make their quick decision about where to rent-they had three days in Oregon to find a house before they flew back to MD to pack up the household goods and start driving west!

Beautiful! How great they found such a place! Years ago I saw one of those home design shows where a room gets redone in a weekend - one of them featured a Moroccan-theme. I have always remembered it as I thought it was wonderful.

Someday I will take a pic of my new reading windowseat, but as I don't have a camera, that won't be any time soon.
