Fun & Fab Book-Themed Accessories and Gift Ideas

If you love books, you will love the fun and fabulous book-themed gift ideas and accessories that I have catalogued for you here on this Review This blog page. If not exactly what you are looking for, they are sure to be a great jumping off point for a gift idea for yourself or for a friend or family member who just cannot take their nose out of a book. All of these book-themed gifts are from Etsy, many of them are available in a variety of materials and patterns and some of them can be personalized with your or your loved one's name or initials. 

BOOK HOLDER

If you love to read while enjoying your favorite beverage, you will love this little wooden tool. It is designed to help you hold the pages of your book open with one hand free up the other to hold a mug of your favorite hot and steamy beverage. 

A user of a similar device said, “I decided to finally read all the big books on my shelf, and my thumbs have been suffering. This thing is amazing! I will probably be buying ten of these as Christmas gifts later this year.” I think that is a brilliant review though the book holder shown here is slightly different because it is shaped like a cat. I understand exactly what it is like to try to keep the pages of a big trade paperback book open! 

This device is simple and practical and small and affordable. It is something you probably have never heard of  before but once you have seen it you will surely appreciate it. You will find this little wooden book holder from Honey Memo Studio on Etsy by clicking right here.

COFFEE MUG & SWEATSHIRT

Did someone mention a steamy hot beverage? Now that one of your hands has been freed up by the book holder, you need a mug for the other hand!  Book lovers will want to consider this coffee mug by Etsy's Twisted Timber Art. It will make you smile. It features a row of pretty books and the user's name. If you are a big reader, you know that rule applies to every day and you will therefore want to use this mug every day, too!  Find this book-themed pottery mug here on Etsy.  

METAL BOOKMARK

This bookmark is so pretty! I love the uniqueness of this personalized calligraphy with the little heart and bead. Instead of a name or a word like mom or dad, Charlene also fashions bookmarks with other items on the top like a jigsaw puzzle piece, a bird or a wine glass. 

Reader Janet says, "I think so highly of Charlene! Her artistry and creativity has helped me make so many people extremely happy!"

SPOON BOOKMARK

How about a hand-stamped bookmark? The text on these vintage spoons makes me smile and can be customized to whatever you want to say. I really like “Drink Tea. Read Books. Be Happy” because that fits me to a tea, pun intended. However, I will admit that “Fell asleep here” would be really appropriate, too. 

Reader Ziehr says, "This is the third spoon book marker that I have ordered. It fits snuggly on my book and it does not move around. It's a great personalized gift for any reader."

BIRD BOOKENDS

Bookends, anyone? If you enjoy displaying your books, a pair of bookends can be found to suit any interest. I love these hummingbird, bird-themed bookends and think they’d do a great job organizing any stack of books that you have. They would look very cute on your open shelving.

Find them from Little Dream Ticks on Etsy by clicking here.

TRAVEL BOOKENDS

Those, like me, who are armchair travelers will love these vintage globe-themed bookends though because they are vintage, they are one-of-a-kind find. Once they are sold, they will be gone and you will have to look further afield to find a set that appeals to you. You will find these globe bookmarks on Etsy from Heirloom Haven Vintage by clicking here and searching for bookends. Since these ones are vintage, once they are sold they will no longer be available but you can click here to see what other antique and vintage bookends are available on Etsy today.

HANDMADE PLANTER BOOKENDS

How about some handmade bookends? These ones are perfect for a plant lover who is also a reader. They are stylish, crafted from concrete and designed to look like plant pots. One user said, "I gave this as a gift to a book and plant lover and she LOVED it. It’s crafted from high quality materials and colors. There’s also a drainage hole, so you know an actual plant lover made it."

You can check them from Ilay Concrete Crafts on Etsy by clicking right here.

PADDED BOOK SLEEVE

I will admit that when we travel, I put my book into a plastic bag to give it some protection in the car or in my carry-on bag. I never thought that there might be a more attractive way to carry my book around while at the same time offering it some protection. Enter this beautiful padded book sleeve. 

Reader Saelua says, "Beautiful fabric and well made! I got the largest size so I’d be ready to carry any book I need. Right now I’m able to fit one medium sized book and one small in it at the same time. Looking forward to using this for a long long time." 

Annette offers a few fun patterns that currently include this pretty Watercolor Wildflowers. You are sure to find one that best suits you or your recipient's interests. 

You will find them on Etsy from Fred 'N Polly Handmade by clicking here.
