Top Ten Bookish Things (That Aren't Books) That Lori Would Like To Own

 
To learn more about Top Ten Tuesday or see a list of future topics click here!


1.  To the Lighthouse Book Cover T-Shirt--I LOVE this shirt!  (And so many other shirts from Out of Print Clothing).  I will totally buy it one day...but I feel like I need to actually read the book before I buy the shirt.

2.  She is too fond of books Necklace--I saw this piece on a book blog I follow.  I absolutely love it!  You can buy it on Etsy.




3.  We do things My Way or the Hemingway shirt--Why would I not want this?  My friend owns it and he let me borrow it for my MA thesis defense.  Unfortunately, I was unable to style the t-shirt with something acceptable for such an occasion.  But I totally dig it.




4.  Book Clutch--I cannot remember which ones, but I know that Kate Spade at one point had several different classic book clutches.  I was able to find a picture of A Tale of Two Cities.  I think it's a fun way to carry some of your essentials.  Definitely a great conversation starter!




5.  Alice in Wonderland Flask--Uh, awesome!  I totally have to get one!  These are available on Etsy.




6.  Bookish Cardigan--I love cardigans!  I wear the all the stinking time.  Even in the summer because my office is freezing!  This is a really fun print, but it's not totally overwhelming, so you could totally wear it a lot of places.




7.  Leo Tolstoy Library Diffuser--So I'm not usually too big on scents, but I think it would be pretty cool to see what scents certain authors might evoke.  Currently, they have Dickens, Tolstoy, Austen, Wilde and a few others.  I hope they expand their collection to include more authors.  I would love an Ernest Hemingway one...but they have to make it first!




8.  Game of Thrones Mug Set--I'm not into Game of Thrones, but my boyfriend is.  I saw these mugs and think that they're super cool.  And I know he'd appreciate them because of the GoT theme.




9.  Harry Potter Title Hoodie--I've seen a few things listing the titles in order, but I really liked this one the best.  Maybe it's that the text is on the back.  I don't know.  Anyway, this is really cool and it's on Etsy.




10.  Clear Book Weight--This would be super handy.  Whenever I try to read, I frequently set my book down because I need to use my hand or hands and this would be a great way to not lose my place and keep reading.  Also good for windy days.



What sorts of bookish things are on your wishlist??

  1. I would love that Harry Potter hoodie! And the clear book weight would be so useful for reading outside, or even just to hold the page in place while taking notes.

  2. A book clutch made my list too, and that clear book weight is awesome! :)

  3. The Potter hoodie made my list as well. Love it!

  4. Great list! I want #10! I already have three different Harry Potter hoodies and am no longer permitted to buy said hoodies or any for that matter. =)

  5. Isn't that clear book weight a great idea?! I saw it online somewhere else too and I know I have to buy it for my husband. That HP hoodie is adorable too!

    ReplyDelete
  6. I also put a Harry Potter shirt, a hunger games shirt, and a kindle fire.

  7. Hi. I have publish my post and put link on the ever growing list. I like the idea of the clear paper weight. Great post. X

    ReplyDelete
  8. Ooh I like the Lighthouse tee, I want that! I'm not sure about the clear book weight, while it looks useful it also looks impractical... like where would you keep it? And if it's made of glass, how would you keep it safe? I think a bookmark is probably the better option? D:

    Under The Mountain's reading rooms that will make you drool. Hopefully.

  11. These are great. Would love a book clutch and that clear book weight. This actually inspired me to think about possible book decor for our home. I think it would be a great theme for the entire house.

  16. I need those GoT mugs! Seriously, off to order them right now. I don't need anymore coffee mugs - and the fiancee will attest to that - but I love these so much! That hoodie is adorable too!

    My TTT!
