We all know at least one book lover (if you don't you probably are one!). What's not to love, to be honest, books offer a world of magic that simply can't be explained! And what a wonderful world of goodies that can be themed around books. This is the perfect gift guide for book lovers. And what's better all items mentioned below are all small UK indie businesses!

 

'An emporium of candles, journaling and bookish magic'

The most dreamy smelling candles, with wonderful names that transport you to other worlds, pair their candles with a good book and you are close to heaven! 

'Whisporia is a shop that brings magic to life through evocative scented candles and wax melts, journaling supplies, bookish gifts and more.

Handmade and designed in a North Norfolk cottage, each product is made or curated with care and attention to deliver a magical experience.'

These guys are so worth a follow on social media, they have the most dreamy grid ever, it's magical!

This is the perfect small business for any book lover, but especially if your a fan of the classics!

'Well Read Company, founded in 2019, is a designer and manufacturer of luxury handbags, tote bags and wallets inspired by classic literature. The earliest prototypes were loosely inspired by traditional bookbinding techniques and made on a domestic sewing machine at home! Our bestselling collections feature timeless titles such as Pride and Prejudice, Sherlock Holmes, and Alice in Wonderland.'

Their bags are simply stunning, I personally own a few of their tote bags and we currently stock some of the handbags on our own website. They are stunning and so so beautifully made, and such attention to detail! Also how perfect is their tag line...

This wonderful small business, creates the cutest range of bookishly good enamel pins. (you might have already guessed I'm a huge fan of enamel pins!) I'm also a huge fan of Beauty and the Beast and this Belle enamel pin is just perfect! 

Alissa May, has a whole range of booking loving characters in her Etsy shop, in a similar style to the one above, along with other book themed items! Please check her out! 

Books are precious things and they deserve the best! They deserve their own perfect little safe space, especially if you are anything like me and books can often be thrown into the depths of a handbag! No I say, get your books a beautiful book sleeve and protect them!! 

Avocato Crafts have a truly stunning range of book sleeves, in the most lush fabrics! Check her out!!!

Yes, I have included myself in this list...because why not! And remember at Joyella Design, we offer a range of items from small UK indie businesses! 

But today I'm going to talk about our very own range of wooden bookmarks...

All of our wooden bookmarks are digitally drawn and then machine engraved and they are amazing! I'm still personally blown away by the detail in these bookmarks! Also what I love about these bookmarks, it that they are long lasting, they are built for those big thick chunky books! 

 

I hope you've found this blog post helpful for all your book loving friends! Happy reading!
