Bookish Christmas List – 2015

December 9, 2015 etc 1

Each year I like to make a list of all the bookish things I’m dreaming of. I love finding bookish items for my house and seeing what other people love! This year I’m super late with this post but I still wanted to share some of the things I’ve had my eye on 🙂 You can see past lists from 2010, 2012, 2013, and 2014. Some items repeat. Some from past list would have repeated but I bought them or received them from my amazing sister.

First, something only Santa can bring me…

Six of Crows Dice

These beauties were given out when Leigh Bardugo was on tour before Six of Crows came out. Originally she had a stop only a couple hours from me and I was so excited to see her and maybe snag a set of these. Through a cruel twist in the universe, the stop was cancelled and I didn’t get to see her! Alas, such is life. I have since seen the lovely and brilliant Leigh, however, I still desperately want these! So do the people who have them so I need Santa to work his magic!!

IMG_9723I do have a pretty amazing Grisha/Crows collection but there are some other goodies I’m sure I’m missing. I know there was a tote bag and I think I might be missing some maps/bookmarks/buttons. I don’t normally collect things like this but I just adore these books and Leigh! Plus, everything is so gorgeous. How can I resist?!?!

 

Hebel Design Jewelry

Hebel Design

I’ve been wanting this amazing necklace from Hebel Design since I first saw it in 2010! There is also a reproduction that is much cheaper and still gorgeous. But that handmade one is just something spectacular. crows

Hebel Designs also makes some amazing Grisha/Crows jewelry! I love the Six of Crows  necklace pictured at right. There is also a crow feather necklace and a Sun Summoner one that I love. Basically, I want it all.

 

Ornaments

Screen Shot 2015-12-09 at 8.41.59 AMI was decorating my tree last night and I realized that I don’t have ornaments for two of my favorite books: Pride and Prejudice and Anne of Green Gables! As I crafted this post I found and bought these amazing Pride and Prejudice ornaments. As for Anne, apparently Hallmarks in Canada had a series of Anne ornaments! I can’t afford $60 for them but this one on amazon is so tempting!! The one pictured is from the Anne of Green Gables store and I love that it has Anne and Diana 🙂

 

Library Due Date Card Goodies

Cyberoptix

I’m a sucker for library themed things. Especially if they’re made to look like a due date card. I particularly like this scarf from Cyberoptix on etsy. Isn’t it gorgeous?!?!

Candles

Novelly Yours

I don’t burn candles that often but I’m totally a sucker for a bookish scented candle! I have the Shire one from Frostbeard Studio and want basically all their other ones (The Princess Bride! Pride and Prejudice!) I recently just ordered Anne of Green Gables and Raven Cycle themed ones from The Melting Library. I am most excited about getting my Grisha, Scorpio Races, and Raven Cycle ones from Novelly Yours! My order is in the mail 🙂 Brittany recently added a Lunar Chronicles set and I need it!!!!

 

Litographs

I just adore this company! I have the Throne of Glass and Wonder posters in my library and everyone comments on them. I really want the matted Pride and Prejudice print for my house! I wouldn’t say no to a Throne of Glass tote either. They also have super fun tattoos. There’s even a Last Unicorn one!

 
 

 

Society6

chaos

Evie Seo

I have never ordered from anyone on Society6 but I lurk! I particularly love Evie Seo’s stuff! My problem is that I have no room for more prints or pillows. I would take any of the stationary cards… who doesn’t love sending and receiving mail?!?! I love all the Six of Crows and Pride and Prejudice goodies, of course. But I also really like the general ones about books and reading. I am in love with the Chaos Walking design as well. That’s not a series I see many products for! If you have recommendations for other Society6 shops I should check out, let me know!

Harry Potter

Harry_Potter_and_the_Sorcerer's_Stone

 

I love everything Harry Potter. My guest room is even Harry Potter themed. Always and forever I will dream of owning a signed copy of Harry Potter and the Sorcerers’s Stone. A first edition would be amazing but let’s be real, I’d love anything signed by the amazing J.K. Rowling!!!

    I’ve seen that scarf before! It is so wonderfully cute…I’d be afraid to wear it around teenagers though…there’s an entire generation of kids now who will have never seen a library card and probably not get the joke!
