TIPS for Creating a Halloween Book Nook!

You can create a Halloween book nook using some inexpensive things. Start with some short of shelves for your books. I used these versatile Amazon picture ledges but I’ve also spotted people using the Ikea spice ledge to hold books.. Then add some decor like flying bats or a colorful garland. Stock the book nook with a wide variety of Halloween books. Add some seating nearby with some fun floor pillows or a small kids chair.
