Bookish Christmas Gift Ideas

Bookish Gifts for Christmas

With Christmas  just over a month away, it’s time to start thinking about gifts.

No no, I’m not saying that you need to get out and shop yet, but you need to start planning. Especially if you’re looking to buy something handmade for that special someone this year. Some of these wonderful gift ideas take a few weeks processing time and it will get worse as we get closer to Christmas, so you might want to place that order soon!

I compiled a list of some of my favorite book-ish goods that I’ve found all over and thought you may like as well!


Candles

Candles are incredibly popular this year and seem to be on the rise, especially in the amount of shops that are out there! So I pulled a few together that make some wonderful products! Some of them do have discount codes but they change with time. You can access them if you check out these wonderful stores Instagram pages or send me an

email/tweet and I’ll find one for you (you can get between 5-20% off an order!)

MLCWO Products @ Teespring 1

Hello all you wonderful people! I am really happy, and proud, to announce that I have officially opened a shop

Unlike many other people who completely host their own shops at Etsy and whatnot, I have decided to have a third party host me, so I am using Teespring! I will mostly be creating and selling t-shirts, mugs and stickers (but with time I will hopefully grow to pillows and phone cases too!)

All of the products on there are about the average price of most t-shirts you would buy in outside places.

The other wonderful thing about this place is that I can decide to create products for a cause if I want to. So if I find something that I would like to support I can commit to share some of the profit with them! Which I love!
I am also able to host sales on here, which is pretty awesome. But to get the discount, you will need to click the specific link I share! So make sure to check here or follow my twitter (@mlcwo) or Instagram (@mylibrarycardworeout) to get the discount link!

So please go and check my store out and let me know what you think!

Something New For Saturday

It’s the weekend! What an exhausting week…..time for something restorative.

Here at MLCWO there has been a quiet obsession over the years with book related things that don’t involve actually reading. Book art, paper art, illustrations. You get the idea.

Well how about floral art?

So what about this???

 

Something New For Saturday

 

Beautiful, don’t you think?

Bridget Beth Collins is the artistic genius behind this glorious flamingo (birthday present for moi!)  and her website Floral Forager is a place of incredibly beautiful works made with bits of nature. Bridget loves to collect things from the wild and turns them into gorgeously creative pieces. Works of art.

And she has got some pieces that are books and movie themed!!
