My Favorite Amazon Finds for May

Let’s take a peek at what’s in my cart! Here are some of my favorite May Amazon finds for home and life.

May is here, and it’s definitely one of the most beautiful times of the year in our little corner of the world. I’m back with another roundup of Amazon finds that you can add to your cart to help you make the most of the current month and enjoy all that this special time of year has to offer. From cozy home finds to pieces that encourage you to get outside as much as possible, I’m hoping that you find something here to inspire you. This month, I’ve been ordering necessities like a sturdy scrub brush, a new phone holder, and a pillow insert, but I can never resist adding at least one fun thing into my cart if I’m placing an order anyway, so this super pretty, very affordable green dress popped into my cart as well. Find all my favorites for the month of May below.

The Best Finds for May

Gingham Bed Canopy | How delightful is this bed canopy? Hang it from the ceiling over a bed, crib, or just in the corner of a room to create a magical little reading nook to encourage young minds to get lost in a book. I’m not going to lie, when I saw this, I immediately started looking around our house to see if there was a reasonable place that I could use this, even though we don’t have any little ones in the house anymore. Just so sweet.

Faux Plum Blossom Branches | Love the shape and the detail on these faux plum blossom branches, and you can’t beat the price. These are perfect for spring, but no one will stop you if you want to continue to display them into the summer months as well. Just so pretty.

Toile Tablecloth | This blue and natural linen colored toile is just perfect. This is listed as a tablecloth/picnic cloth, but honestly it’s a great price if you want to take this and just use it as fabric for another project. 10-minute pillow covers? Pleated lampshades? Torn fabric ribbon? It could be all these things and more. Or just a beautiful tablecloth. 🙂

Egg Basket | This charming little basket is such a great price. I’d love to see this displayed on a kitchen counter to hold freshly-gathered eggs, extra tea towels, or a collection of wood cleaning brushes. Or use it on your open shelves as a sweet decorative object.

Green Tiered Dress | I’m on a mini roll with my super affordable Amazon finds with my recent floral skirt discovery, and now this airy tiered dress that will be perfect all summer long for just about anything. I love all the available color options, but this practical green really spoke to me.

Sink Skirt | Love this easy, pre-made sink skirt! The color is an earthy olive green/brown and people are using these for all kinds of creative uses not limited to just sinks. These make a beautiful skirt for covering cluttered shelves or for making a basic table feel a little extra special.

Petite Ginger Jar | This just caught my eye as being so beautiful and sweet, and the price is so good. A small ginger jar to hold cotton balls in the bathroom, to be used as a vase for a small bouquet of garden blooms, or to just display on its own on a shelf.

At Home in a Book | This is just such a delightful little book, and is currently available for pre-order, with an official release date of May 26. Illustration star Lauren O’Hara brings the world of nine classic children’s books to life through beautiful, charming illustrations that let you look into iconic homes featured in your favorite children’s classics. This would make such a lovely gift for any lover of classic literature.

Jane Austen’s Kitchen | Another beautifully illustrated book for classic lit fans featuring recipes for dishes you might find served in the home of some of your favorite Jane Austen characters. Such a fun addition to a cookbook collection.

Stiff-Bristled Brush | There’s a funny story behind this purchase. I was reading through Julie Andrews’ memoir Home a few weeks ago, and she mentioned that she had a housekeeper when she was very young and living in New York who taught her how to clean her apartment and keep her world in order. She explained how she had learned to always have a stiff-bristled brush and a soft-bristled brush and how they would help her take care of almost any job. In that moment, I realized that I do not currently have a stiff-bristled brush (at least not one that I can find) and that it would probably be exactly what I need for a lot of the jobs I’m trying to check off my list right now. So I added it to my cart, and I said a silent little thank you to Julie Andrews for the helpful cleaning advice. 🙂

Tiny Copper Bird/Bee Bath | I’ve been on a three-year quest to find the perfect large bird bath, and truthfully, I haven’t quite found it yet, but this tiny copper bee and bird bath was just too cute in the meantime. Such a classic look for a tiny corner of your garden or patio, and at such a great price too.
