Holiday gifts for book lovers!

Monday, December 1st, 2008

Hi folks! I’ve got a book review upcoming and more after that, but in the meantime, I wanted to tell you about a couple of cool gifts to consider for your favorite readers. I make beaded, hand-made bookmarks and sell them at errantdreams.etsy.com. All of the ones I posted before November have been marked down in price by 20-30%. Also, from now through Dec. 31, if you live in the USA and order a least $20 in products, you’ll get free shipping. :) Just place your order and wait to pay until I send you a revised invoice.

I also make & sell jewelry of various kinds there. Here’s a sampling of items:

In addition, if you’re in a more practical and less fanciful mode, we have a cafepress store with T-shirts, mugs, etc. in a bunch of designs, including a handful for writers & readers, such as:

     

Give one of these lovely gifts to a friend or loved one this year, and you’ll be giving them something unusual and special!
