So many great ideas Kala! I love the bookcases in the corner plus the curio corner. The colour schemes are also my favourites and I've picked up some great tips for our new apartment. Thanks and have a lovely day! Sue @Sizzling60 from

Love cozy corners. I had one in my last home with a corner shelf, a bean bag and a carpet to adorn the lil' space. The ideas are great. Let me take a look at my new quarters. I'm sure, I can use many of these ideas. Thank you :)

Corner space does tend to get wasted and you've got some great ideas here on how to use them. My favourite would be the cozy armchair where I could curl up and read. Alas this remains only a dream as I don't have a corner and even less time to read!

Cozy corners to read are a must! I loved the idea of the tree trunk too! The shelf behind the refrigerator is a brainwave!
Great ideas as usual Kala!

Absolutely stunning ideas for corners. I specially want to turn a corner into a place with an armchair and a lovely wall hanging. Those book shelves are to die for too.

So much space can be rescued and reclaimed. I really liked that plant and shelves. it just makes the space so much more interesting and involves it in the rest of the rooms dynamics. Thanks for writing!
Amazing ideas!

The bookshelf idea is pretty cool!
Could I put up a music system in the corner instead of a television set? Would it affect the quality of music or anything?

Lovely pictures, and I never knew one could sit in that unconventional manner in a basket chair! :D

I have been prescribed a set of physiotherapy exercises lately for my arm, and one of those exercises had to be done with the support of a corner in the house (i.e. 2 walls making a 90 degree between them)! To my dismay, I realized there wasn't a single corner free in my house, where I could do that exercise! Empty corners just don't seem right, do they?

I'm a big fan of the corner couch - we have two in different rooms because they make such good use of the space. A lamp also looks great and takes away the shadows that you sometimes get in under used corners. Leanne @ cresting the hill

The kitchen drawer idea is beyond freaking awesome!! I have used corner shelves for a heap of things, from displaying curio to stacking books and storing stuff in the kitchen. Nothing half as pretty as these pics of course, but still. Feeling proud and accomplished today after reading your post :D I have made most of my tight corners :)

This is one list I had in my mind while decorating our new home. We have implemented most of these tricks and I love the fact that the corners we so often neglect actually add so much character and space to hold things we love :)
Fantastic post like always <3
