For the booklovers on your list

A few things too good not to share...

Out of Print Clothing has produced some fabulous tshirts featuring their interpretations of classic book covers.  I gave Maddy the Pride and Prejudice one for her birthday and she loved it.  Wouldn't your bookgroup best friend or English major niece love one?

. . .

 

Check out this lovely wreath made from the pages of books! I just ordered one for our front room/library and I couldn't resist sharing it in case someone else loves it as much as I do. This one will probably stay up on our walls all year long.

 

. . .

Who wouldn't love receiving one of these gorgeous, cloth-bound Penguin classics with covers designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith? It might be just the thing for helping someone start a collection. Maybe one a year for ten years?

. . .

 

Or for the journal/book writer on your list, this set of three blank books provides an excellent canvas. This was under the tree for Maddy last year and she's had a lovely time filling each book with its own content, chapter style.

 

Speaking of books, look at this marvelous idea for a children's book advent calendar--you can use holiday books you already have, library books, whatever you'd like. What a charming idea!  I think even my teens and tweens would love to revisit one book from their childhood Christmases every night of December.
