Top Ten Tuesday | Favorite Bookish Websites and Shops
Hey Guys!
Another week, another T10T! I'm pretty excited to share my favorite bookish websites and shops with you. I have WAYYYY more than 10 favorites but here are my absolute favorites! Enjoy!
Novel Knight
Features: Book Preorder Incentives
I learned about this site from the OwlCrate Facebook Page and have followed it religiously ever since. Unless you follow an author on social media, it can be hard to find preorder information for new releases. I love that all the preorder information for new releases is in one place and includes the rules for the event and the link. This website is a true resource! Go check it out now!
Book Birds
Features: New Book Release Information
Before discovering this website, I would find out about new released I'd like to have by seeing them on Amazon or social media and didn't know there was one place that described all new releases by month. I love browsing this site because it's updated constantly and gives a brief synopsis of each. If you're looking to see what books are coming out or looking for something new to read, check out this site.
Spidey Scents
Products: Candles and Candle Crates
There are what seems like an infinite number of bookish candle shops on Etsy so it can be hard to pick. Spidey Scents has been a favorite of mine since I first found it about 6 months ago because of their variety and quality of design and quality of candle. Every candle I've received from them has smelled wonderful (this is pretty rare) and they're a well priced item. They've also started doing curated candle crates and while I haven't tried one yet, I'm sure I will in the future. The majority of candles I won are from Spidey Scents if that tells you anything. So go check them out now!
Dust and Pages
Products: Enamel Pins, Paper Products, Custom FUNKO
This shop is a recent favorite of mine and every time she add more items to her shop, they're gone! From custom FUNKO Pops to beautiful enamel pins, she does a little bit of everything and it's done well. The quality of items is very professional (especially the pops). You can tell every design is painstakingly done and I relish new product information. For some gorgeous pins and prints, check out Dust and Pages now!
Bookish Boutique Co.
Products: Bookmarks and Sugar Scrub
I couldn't do a list like this without plugging my own shop! I started my shop in December of 2017 and have been creating new designs and adding new types of products since. I love making bookmarks and especially love making customs for the book community. I added sugar scrubs last month and hopefully soon will be able to add candles! If you're looking for a quality bookmark for with a current design or something you want to have. We can do it! Check us out!
Canterbury Road Co.
Products: Candles and Wax Melts
My second favorite candle shop, Canterbury Road Co is one of the most popular shops on Etsy (although they moved to their own website now). I love this shop for the same reasons I love the other shop: the variety and the quality. This shop also does BOGO wax melts! They're phenomenal and I have ordered more than I could ever use haha. They are constantly updating their stock and creating new scents. Go check this shop out if you need some wax melts or a specific candle!
LitJoy Crate
Products: Book Crates and Bookish items
One of the many book crate companies, LitJoy differentiates themselves by having consistently good curated items for crates and providing phenomenal specialty crates. They have done a Harry Potter specialty crate for years 1-4 of Hogwarts so far, and as a receiver of a year 3 crate, I can attest that although their crates may be a little more than your average crate, they are absolutely worth the cost. Check out this phenomenal company! They also sell extra goodies from their boxes and t- shirts as well!
Nerdy Post
Products: Bookish Paper Products and Goody Crate
I didn't find out about this specialty crate until March and have loved absolutely every crate I've received from then. I even upgraded from the basic crate to the deluxe crate. Each month is curated around a theme and includes 10-15 paper products as well as smaller other items (such as candles or pins). The deluxe crate also includes a t- shirt and they are great quality. They also do specialty curated boxes on occasion and you can order extra goodies directly from their site. Check out this lower cost option if you want bookish goodies!
Stella Bookish Art
Products: Artist
I learned about this AMAZING artist when I saw that her art popping up in book crates alot and decided to check her out. She has some absolutely gorgeous design and gets the details absolutely correct. She sells her art on both Etsy and her Society 6 page. Go check it out if you're looking for some great bookish prints.
Gabriella Bujdoso
Products: Artist
Hands down, she is my absolute favorite bookish artist. Every single one of her designs has been gorgeous. She really captures the moment she illustrates and brings it to life. It makes things I could only imagine in my mind after reading, come out in this gorgeous piece of art. She has a Society 6 shop and I wish there were more pieces in it to order! I want it all! Go check her stuff out!
Hope you enjoyed my list and found something new to shop for or a new resource. Enjoy shopping and go check out these sites! Have a great week y'all!
