A Coffee Table Dipping Book for Your Creative Corner: Friday Favorites

A Coffee Table Dipping Book for Your Creative Corner: Friday Favorites

A good coffee table dipping book might be the simplest thing you can add to a cozy creative corner.

These aren’t books you read cover to cover. Rather, it’s a book you pick up when you have a spare moment. One that lives on the side table, ready for a slow few minutes between other things.

If the idea of coffee table dipping books appeals to you, you won’t want to miss this week's Tuesday post all about creating a cozy creative corner in your home.

Feels Like Home as a Coffee Table Dipping Book

This book is by one of my favorite home decor bloggers. This volume offers so many tips and how-tos for so many projects to make your home feel truly yours. The photos are beautiful and capture her own home, which she’s created to be so incredibly charming, inviting and fitting her personality while being comfortable for her family. 

I love seeing this volume stacked on my coffee table in my evening salon. I reach for it whenever I need an eye candy fix, often while my tea cools just enough to where I can drink it!

Why Coffee Table Dipping Books Belong in a Slow Corner

There's something particular about a book that doesn't demand to be finished. It asks nothing of you except a few unhurried minutes. And, in a home that tends toward the quiet and the intentional, that's exactly the kind of thing worth keeping close!

Start with one. Set it somewhere you already sit. Let it be the thing that makes your creative corner feel ready, even before anything else is in place.
