I also love the book wallets and phone cases.
Last year I got my daughter book earrings that opened and had little paper pages in them. We found them at a used bookstore near Halifax, but I’m not sure where they came from before that.

That is so good to hear because I had not tried any of them. Maybe I’ll get a bit of Christmas money and can buy one!

One set is from the Latin dictionary- I’m going to get them for Jed!

I think it is so charming! I have two succulents (about all I can handle) and I’m thinking of repotting them. Need to find a damaged book…

You know how I feel Eva! Not going to established dept stores has made shopping more challenging, but worth it. The Gone Reading site has a lot of candles!

I want to find some book/library scented candles. I have a bunch of bookish t-shirts and socks, maybe time to branch out into scarves.

Can’t wait to get my shopping done without supporting a certain family.

I have a black thumb, but even I’m tempted by the succulent idea!

There are second-hand cheap books in a market on weekends here, and maybe I will try one of those for this purpose (but for me, not for giving it away lol)
