January is probably the best month to curl up in a cozy sweater with a warm drink and a good book.
As fans of Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club, we took note of the actor’s January pick reveal: Laura Dave’s “The First Time I Saw Him,” which Witherspoon announced on Instagram via a FaceTime call with Jennifer Garner, star of the filmed series. Aside from the duo’s adorable banter, we were charmed by the cozy atmosphere both actors created thanks to the gold wall sconces in their respective homes.
Before you balk at the idea of calling an electrician, rest assured. You don’t have to rewire your home to create a similar atmosphere. Amazon has elegant wall sconces starting at just $40, including battery-powered options. Ahead, we’ve rounded up the best reading sconces to recreate the ambient lighting in Witherspoon and Garner’s home.
