You can have a fireplace theme. DJinkers (you can get through Carson Dellosa) makes a really cute fireplace bulletin board set and then you can put a rocking chair or recliner type chair with a reading lamp. It makes it a cozy corner for readers.
How about "Reading the World". I'm envisioning supporting the concept of reading as having a valuable purpose in everything done in the world - so we "read" the weather or familiar labels or signs, for example, and for readers beginning to associate meaning with the written word, imagine how that bridge between what they know by "reading" the world around them, and then what they are learning: reading letters, connecting them with sounds, and creating meaning, would support all their acquisition skills by helping them to see themselves as readers already, regardless of whether they can decode.
Using this general theme could invite reading about seasons, animals, people, celebrations, geography, science - whatever your topic or skill/strategy focus might be, while supporting observational skills and receptive acquisition strategies. "Brown Bear" is a terrific book to use to show observational or receptive skills and their relationship to decoding text and expressive reading. "Students, students, what do you see?" Imagine the wonderful stories they'd tell!
Additionally, students could illustrate stories of the things they see and do in their own world as well - pets, friends, school activities, the books they've read, the stories they invent - supporting their expanding literacy skills as they work as authors.
Whatever theme you select, I know you'll have a wonderful year!
My friend had her whole Kindergarten classroom done up in a beach theme. Her reading area was titled "beachy reading." She had child-size beach chairs and a beach umbrella. She used beach mats for a rug. It was adorable!
