Happy Saturday friends! I have been extremely excited to bring you today’s blog, featuring some of my favorite Small Businesses in the bookish community. Sometimes shopping for a reader is hard, especially when they tend to buy all their favorite books before you can get there… so I wanted to showcase some great gift ideas for your loved one, or lets be honest… yourself.
We all know 2020 has been a hard year, so the businesses that chose to say thank you by offering a discount code for your holiday shopping is incredibly thoughtful. Thank you to every business who participated!
So grab your favorite beverage, a blanket and hit play on my favorite holiday playlist and lets get shopping!
Blissfully Bookish
Blissfully Bookish is one of my favorite businesses to order from in the bookstagram community. Kathryn runs it with fantastic customer service and has made a custom T-shirt for my Daevabad read along that came out better than I could have imagined. Her new holiday collection is on my own personal Christmas list this year. Cant make a decision on one for a gift?! Try her subscription box.
Blissfully’s shirts are a great gift considering the average price of $26. WOW!

LN Designs Co.
LN Designs Co. is a business ran by a book lover, wife and mama! Lauren’s designs are unique and although she has some of my favorite fandom themed bookmarks, stickers, and prints she also has created a stunning holiday themed collection. My kindle is decorated with her stickers and my shelf has a cup dedicated to the collection of bookmarks I have…. why have one when you can have options, ya know?
My favorites: Manon sticker, Daevabad bookmark, custom bookstack prints, book woman prints
Lauren is a major part of the bookstagram community and loves to share her love for regency romance and classic literature which you can see a lot of in her shop.

The Bookish Box
The Bookish Box is one of the highest trending monthly subscription boxes and fandom inspired T’s. From A Court of Thorns and Roses to Serpent & Dove, you’ll find different designs that are perfect for fantasy lovers.
I myself have also received a few different subscription boxes. Their special edition Kingdom of the Wicked book was BREATH TAKING and my favorite out of all the subscription boxes I’ve seen. I’m a firm believer that there is nothing better than a surprise package in the mail once a month (hint hint)
Today though I wanted to feature their comfy “Don’t let the hard days win” sweat pants. Perfect for lounging or taking the cutest picture to post on your social media.
