β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
For quite some time, I've been wanting to give my bedroom a facelift--making it fit the "cozy cottage" vibe I desired when I first bought this house 🏑
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Before starting my renovation journey, I created a mood board with my ideal home decor in mind πŸ›οΈ I knew that I wanted a wood dresser that combined modern farmhouse with classic elements, and @sauderusa 100% delivered! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
This stunning oak dresser immediately brought serious #SauderStyle (aka new life and so much beautiful warmth) to the room 🀎 It's incredibly sturdy, has so much space, and was honestly quite easy to assemble (with a friend) πŸ› οΈ I still catch myself staring at it each time I walk by 😍
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
How would you describe your decor style? β˜•οΈ

If the main character of your current read asked y If the main character of your current read asked you to swap lives with them right now, would you agree? πŸ’­ Why or why not? πŸ€”
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ—οΈ I definitely would NOT swap lives with either Grayson or Jameson in The Brothers Hawthorne because I don't even have a fraction of their brain power to solve puzzles and enter high-stakes games.. like that would just be a recipe for disaster! 🫣
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
🏰 Aaaand I also probably wouldn't swap with Agatha or Sophie in The School for Good and Evil because I'd be very confused in a place like that and wind up creating chaos without meaning to because how do you *not* when you're living in close quarters with fairytale characters? πŸ˜…

Hi friends--what have I missed? 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
All I'm hearing on repeat in my head is Jacob Black's ridiculous, "Where the hell have you been, loca?" πŸ˜† I missed you all SO MUCH this past month and a half 😭
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
So to answer the werewolf's question:
🫢🏼 I got to spend a week with one of my best buddies in Ohio and we made friendship blankets, got matching Gilmore Girls tattoos, went to high tea, watched a ton of Seinfeld, avoided a tornado, and shopped til we dropped (it was the best time)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ“– @chronicacademia and I have been buddy-reading like our lives depend on it for quite some time, but actually meeting in person and being able to geek out over books together face-to-face was the absolute best
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯€ The chance to meet one of my favorite authors during the same trip? Couldn't pass that up! I attended the Foxglove book tour in Columbus for @authoradalyngrace and it was such a surreal experience
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸͺ΄ I've begun to work on some home projects--finally turning my cozy cottage into exactly that--and I'm loving every second of it! Very thankful for some incredible partnerships that will be coming to this page real soon
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯° I’ve spent so much quality time with my family, including celebrating my sister’s birthday with her making such precious memories. So grateful for my incredible tribe who have held me up and brought so much comfort lately. 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ’” The life update that I posted on my stories on Sept 1 explained the hardest part of why I disappeared for so long. I know that there are great plans for my future even as I stumble my way through the now (if you missed it and are confused, feel free to DM me)

Amazon Holiday Decorations Under $80

Amazon Holiday Decorations Under $80 by The Espresso Edition cozy book and lifestyle blog

Maybe you already decorated, or maybe you’re waiting to be festive the week of Christmas. Either way, I’m sharing Amazon holiday decorations under $80!

Okay, so I typically put up my tree on the first week of November. This year, it took a little bit longer, since I was purchasing some new items to add to the mix, but either way, you can guarantee that my decor is always up before Thanksgiving arrives. It’s so nice having the warm glow of the lights when I walk into the living room in the morning. It’s also so cozy to curl up on the couch with the lights strung around me.

There’s something truly magical about decorating for Christmas. As my husband likes to say, “if it’s the most wonderful time of the year – why not make it the longest?” Goodness, is my elf-self finally rubbing off on him? I want to share some of the bargains I’ve found on Amazon for you to use in your home – this year, or next!

Amazon Holiday Decorations Under $80 by The Espresso Edition cozy book and lifestyle blog

I scoured the depths of Amazon to find the cheeriest decor under $80.

I don’t find myself spending much on decorations for the holiday season. These are pieces that will be up for a month or two (or maybe three if you’re really dedicated to the festive spirit) and then put away. However, you can certainly spruce up your space on a budget. Whether you stick with a theme, add a little bit of everything, or keep things super minimal, hopefully, these Amazon holiday decorations will help you out!

Trees

It’s super encouraging to see so many great Christmas trees under $80. You might decide to invest in something a little more luxurious, but know that it’s possible to stay on a tight budget!

Tree Skirts + Collars

A sure way to spice up the Christmas tree is by adding a beautiful tree skirt or unique tree collar. I’ve had a few skirts over the years, but in 2022 I’m testing out the collar style and it’s so pretty!

Ornaments

Maybe you like a themed tree or maybe you’re someone who enjoys mixing and matching personal ornaments from over the years. I like a combination of both. I start with a base of matching Christmas balls and then add in our sentimental pieces.

Garlands + Wreaths

Garland is one of the simplest ways to elevate a space for the holiday season! String lights around it, put it over a mirror, hang it across a doorway, the options are endless. Wreaths can be used similarly. Yes, you can put them on your front door, but you can also put them in windows or over a decorative mirror. So fun.

Gift Wrapping

I don’t know about you, but I take wrapping almost as seriously as my wreaths. I make sure it looks good enough to be a decoration under my tree, even if I wait to put it all out on Christmas Eve (ya know, because cats).

Textiles

From stockings to pillow covers to table runners and more, it’s the little things that really make the decorations extra special.

Miscellaneous

I’m a sucker for a cheesy Christmas sign. I love a festive little plate or knick-knack on a kitchen table or bookshelf. It’s fun to have the more kitschy items during the holiday season. Don’t look at it as clutter–look at it as cheer!

Did you add any Amazon holiday decorations to your home this year?

Amazon’s selection for holiday decor this year is so good! I love how they continue to expand the brands that they carry and always have exceptional prices. Every year I exchange ornaments with my siblings and every year I buy them on Amazon because they have the most unique selection.

I recently bought a pink hanging ‘Merry Christmas’ sign with gold glitter that goes perfectly with my room decor, and got a reindeer head outline that lights up! I’m not usually one to decorate my room but I just couldn’t resist them! x

I LOVE this compilation of holiday decor! My husband and I usually get a live tree (on HIS insistence… but we usually get our tree from a local public school holding a fundraiser so at least the money goes to a good cause!) and our tradition is getting a picture frame ornament every year and we put our favorite memory of the year in it!
I am, however, going to lobby for one of the wreaths you featured – I love them all, I don’t know which one to choose!

Is there a particular room in your home that you'v Is there a particular room in your home that you've been wanting to redecorate? πŸͺž
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
For quite some time, I've been wanting to give my bedroom a facelift--making it fit the "cozy cottage" vibe I desired when I first bought this house 🏑
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Before starting my renovation journey, I created a mood board with my ideal home decor in mind πŸ›οΈ I knew that I wanted a wood dresser that combined modern farmhouse with classic elements, and @sauderusa 100% delivered! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
This stunning oak dresser immediately brought serious #SauderStyle (aka new life and so much beautiful warmth) to the room 🀎 It's incredibly sturdy, has so much space, and was honestly quite easy to assemble (with a friend) πŸ› οΈ I still catch myself staring at it each time I walk by 😍
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
How would you describe your decor style? β˜•οΈ

The first titles that come to mind from my 2023 reading list (so far) are:

If the main character of your current read asked y If the main character of your current read asked you to swap lives with them right now, would you agree? πŸ’­ Why or why not? πŸ€”
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ—οΈ I definitely would NOT swap lives with either Grayson or Jameson in The Brothers Hawthorne because I don't even have a fraction of their brain power to solve puzzles and enter high-stakes games.. like that would just be a recipe for disaster! 🫣
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
🏰 Aaaand I also probably wouldn't swap with Agatha or Sophie in The School for Good and Evil because I'd be very confused in a place like that and wind up creating chaos without meaning to because how do you *not* when you're living in close quarters with fairytale characters? πŸ˜…
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've been drinking this Bannered Mare tea from @steepedinlore with a splash of milk almost daily and it's been just the pick-me-up I need when I have those midday slumps after spending hours at my desk πŸ’» You don't want to miss this one and you can use the code ESPRESSO10 for a discount when you make your purchase! πŸ«–
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
If you don't want to swap with the MC of your current read, which character WOULD you want to trade lives with? πŸ“–

Happy first weekend of autumn 🍁 Who else is as thrilled as I am that the best season has officially arrived? 🀭
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I spent the day baking pumpkin bread with my sister, reading The Brothers Hawthorne while sipping my (multiple) cups of coffee, and watching the blustery rainy weather πŸŽƒ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
To answer my own question, here are a few of my top cozy, autumn book recs:
β€’ The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin

Do you plan your reads around the seasons? 🍁
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I don't pick up many spring or summer books (since I dislike those seasons), but I typically find myself reading more cozy or witchy novels during autumn! πŸ‚ Doing this helps me to fully embrace my favorite time of the year πŸ™ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
It'll come as no surprise to you that, thanks to @steepedinlore, I've also been sipping on many mugs of tea while I dive into my autumnal reads πŸ«– Make sure you use my code ESPRESSO10 to get a discount on your seasonal tea purchase! 🀎

SURPRISE! I'm going to begin adding home content to this page and I'm incredibly excited about it πŸ₯³ I've been slowly but surely transforming my house into the cozy little cottage of my dreams and the first thing to get a rework was the gallery wall in my bedroom, thanks to @desenio πŸ–ΌοΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've been shopping from Desenio for YEARS now and very highly recommend their stunning art prints and frames, so of course, the opportunity to be a #DesenioPartner for this project was a dream come true πŸ™ŒπŸΌ In fact, I have gallery walls featuring their posters in three different rooms in my home--that's how much I love them 😍
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
You can read my full review of this company (from products to pricing to shipping, and more) at the link in my bio πŸ’» And between now and October 3, you can get 45% off your purchase from @desenio using the code ESPRESSOEDITION 🫢🏼
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Which print in my new gallery wall is your favorite? 🀎

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Truthfully, it doesn't matter how long you've followed me, you probably already know that I love all things Shadow and Bone 🫢🏼 I've been going through a Grishaverse reread this year and loving every second of it, but nothing will compare to those first three books! πŸ₯°
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I was late to the game with this trilogy, reading it for the first time just a little before the show first premiered, but it quickly became a core part of my personality πŸ˜‰ Now, I own two signed copies of the first book (one is the special edition hardcover and one is the show tie-in) πŸ“– And no joke, 90% of my candles are related to the Grishaverse in some way (thank you @janzywaxco for providing the perfect scents for my many rereads and rewatches πŸ•―οΈ)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
When was the last time you reread your favorite series? πŸ“š

Hi friends--what have I missed? 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
All I'm hearing on repeat in my head is Jacob Black's ridiculous, "Where the hell have you been, loca?" πŸ˜† I missed you all SO MUCH this past month and a half 😭
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
So to answer the werewolf's question:
🫢🏼 I got to spend a week with one of my best buddies in Ohio and we made friendship blankets, got matching Gilmore Girls tattoos, went to high tea, watched a ton of Seinfeld, avoided a tornado, and shopped til we dropped (it was the best time)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ“– @chronicacademia and I have been buddy-reading like our lives depend on it for quite some time, but actually meeting in person and being able to geek out over books together face-to-face was the absolute best
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯€ The chance to meet one of my favorite authors during the same trip? Couldn't pass that up! I attended the Foxglove book tour in Columbus for @authoradalyngrace and it was such a surreal experience
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸͺ΄ I've begun to work on some home projects--finally turning my cozy cottage into exactly that--and I'm loving every second of it! Very thankful for some incredible partnerships that will be coming to this page real soon
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ₯° I’ve spent so much quality time with my family, including celebrating my sister’s birthday with her making such precious memories. So grateful for my incredible tribe who have held me up and brought so much comfort lately. 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
πŸ’” The life update that I posted on my stories on Sept 1 explained the hardest part of why I disappeared for so long. I know that there are great plans for my future even as I stumble my way through the now (if you missed it and are confused, feel free to DM me)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Now, tell me something that you're looking forward to this autumn πŸ‚
What was the last book someone recommended to you What was the last book someone recommended to you that became a favorite? 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Okay, this wasn't the last one for me, but it was the FIRST book that @chronicacademia recommended to me… and it became an instant fave 😍
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
The Bone Houses is a cozy-creepy (aka, not scary, but just a little eerie, while also being totally cozy and atmospheric) fantasy with incredible disability rep and a truly creative story 🦴 If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend it for your "spooky season" TBR πŸŽƒ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
What's a cozy-creepy book that you enjoy? πŸ™ˆ

Do you prefer to savor one book for an extended pe Do you prefer to savor one book for an extended period of time, or do you tend to fly through your reads pretty quickly? ⏳
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Normally, I would say that I fly through books--inhaling them more than savoring them πŸ˜… But over the last week, I spent time buddy-reading The Fragile Threads of Power... and taking my time with it β˜•οΈ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
There was something really nice about slowing down and reading little bits at a time, then discussing them with my friend, then reading more, then theorizing about the plot, then reading a little more, etc. 🀎 It felt good to just appreciate the book rather than gobbling it up (though I know I'll go right back to that with whatever I read next πŸ˜†)
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
If you tend to fly through your reads, what's the last book that made you WANT to take your time with it and savor each moment? πŸ“–
