Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. Every week they post a new topic/top ten list and invite everyone to share their own answers. I'm so obsessed with lists - so it makes perfect sense that I'd love this feature!
Top Ten Bookish Things (Not Books) That I'd Like to Own
1. Custom Blog Design - I love my current design and am so happy with the pre-made template that I chose. However, in my dream world, I'd love to have a custom design. I don't know how long I'll be around the blogosphere though, so I always feel like I can't justify the cost.
2. I Never Met A Book I Wouldn't Take to Bed Shirt - I've never bought a book-related shirt before, but this is one I just cannot resist! It makes me laugh and has been on my wishlist for a long time. It's probably time I take the plunge and just buy it already.
3. Book Lovers Mug - I'm not sure how much my husband will appreciate this mug, but it's too cute not to buy it. So nerdy, but so adorable! The seller also makes it as a print if you want some nerd love on your wall instead.
4. She Is Too Fond of Books Tote Bag - Can't you just see me schlepping this around the library? I always walk out with WAY more books than I went in to pick up, and I think this will contribute nicely to that little habit.
5. Ikea KALLAX Shelves - I was pretty sad when I found out the Ikea was discontinuing their EXPEDIT shelves (since I already own two of them), but it seems like their new KALLAX line is almost identical. I hope that's true because I was planning on expanding my library!
6. Ideal Bookshelf 660: Girl Stars - I almost put a custom Ideal Bookshelf painting on my wishlist, but I've also got a soft spot for these prints. As a huge fan of classics and amazing heroines, I'd most like to hang this one with the other two I already own.
7. Great Expectations - I haven't seen this movie yet, but I started reading the book after I watched the recent mini-series version starring Douglas Booth (hottie alert!). With Helena Bonham Carter and Ralph Fiennes, this one has me curious!
8. The Invisible Woman - Another literary movie I haven't seen but want to - starring Ralph Fiennes as Charles Dickens and Felicity Jones as the young woman he has an affair with (I think?). Anyway, I'm a sucker for costume dramas so I really look forward to watching it!
9. Reading Chair - I don't want this exact chair, but I am dying to have a comfy and cozy chaise lounge as my very own reading spot. I typically read in the bath, in bed or on the couch... but I can totally see myself curling up in a spot like this with a good book.
10. Custom Calligraphy Book Stamp - I have zero idea if I'd actually use this because I have a difficult relationship with stamps... but I like to think that this stamp would actually work for me. It looks so gorgeous in the pictures, right?!
I love #2 & #6! An custom Ideal Bookshelf painting is soooo tempting, but I'm not sure I could decide on which books to include.
ReplyDelete#2 & #6 are the two I've most contemplated buying haha! And yeah, I like the prints because a) cheaper and b) I don't have to choose books. So stressful!
DeleteI absolutely need a reading chair, too. I have "my spot" on the couch, but much like you, I want my own chaise lounge. Unfortunately, there just isn't room with our current furniture. Maybe once we get new furniture, I can finagle it with the fiance. :)
ReplyDeleteMy TTT!
Yay for reading chairs! The couch just isn't cutting it :) I don't really have the space for it right now, but it's still fun to have it on my future wishlist. Maybe someday!
DeleteYess, I want #6 too! :)
ReplyDeleteYay Ideal Bookshelf!
DeleteI need that bag.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently craving all these: http://outofprintclothing.com/shop/shop-by-title/library-card/
I loved that bag as soon as I spotted it! And oh, I love the stuff you just linked to! Thanks for sharing that :)
DeleteHaving a big comfy chair is one of my dreams. That one looks pretty good :)
ReplyDeleteOh dreaming of chairs... Right there with you! Even if it makes me feel like I'm fully an adult once I start wishlisting furniture haha
DeleteSo many pretty things! I've always dreamed of having a large reading room, complete with comfy chairs, a window nook and floor-to-ceiling shelves with a ladder!
ReplyDeleteYOU ARE DESCRIBING MY IDEAL, ALEXA.
DeleteI love the take a book to bed shirt! I own zero book sass shirts and today reminds me that I fail because of it.
ReplyDeleteI don't own any book shirts either! So, you're not alone there. But I totally want this one!
DeleteOh girl, that chair. I'm making some serious google eyes at that darling.
ReplyDeleteIt's winking back at you...
