Shopping for loved ones can be a lot of pressure. What if you get them the wrong thing? What if they’re disappointed when they open their gift? To curb these unideal situations, I’ve come up with the perfect Etsy gift guide for any book lover.
Epoxy Page Holders
These page holders are an excellent blend of practical and meaningful. Hardcovers can be heavy, and not everyone has the wrist strength to hold up a book for hours. Enter the page holder. Now, you can read your book with one hand and sip your coffee in another. You can pick your giftee’s birth flower as a design, which makes this even more personal. Did I mention they’re gorgeous?
Book Bouquet
Regular bouquets are getting old. Buy your special someone book roses instead! They’re affectionately called Proses, which I love. You can pick from a wide variety of classic/popular texts, so think about what your person might love best. I have these at home, and they are the most outstanding pop of bookish flare in my room.
Suncatcher Ornament
Ornaments make a wonderful present. They’re small, and everyone could use more decoration on their tree. This one, in particular, is so beautiful. It’s a suncatcher, so theoretically, they could keep it up all year. It also could be a stunning tattoo design.
Miniature Book Barrette
Do you have someone in your life who’s big into haircare and books? Barrettes are back in fashion and this mini book barrette could be just the thing for them. Miniatures are adorable, and there is no doubt they’d get so many compliments on them.
Muted Highlighters
This one is for all the annotators out there. Neon highlighters aren’t cutting it anymore. They make pages look too flashy. But this muted highlighter set can keep books looking aesthetic. It comes in six pastel shades, is extremely affordable, and reviewers say it doesn’t soak through pages.
Dreamy Book Nook
I’m obsessed with this idea. Book nooks have become increasingly popular recently. They help give bookshelves that certain je ne sais quoi. This one is a cute little alleyway to go between books. If the person you’re buying for likes a project, you can get them a DIY kit, but this one comes assembled for those no-fuss folks.
Custom Book Holder
Last but not least is this custom TBR bookholder. Your giftee can hold their spot by putting their book on the now-reading stand. Then, they can place their upcoming reads in the adjacent slots. My only complaint is that my TBR is definitely longer than five books!
I hope this collection gave you many wonderful ideas for your friends and family this season! Unsurprisingly, an Etsy gift card is on my list this year. They have amazing items made by some of the best artists. Now shop till you drop!
