Top Ten Tuesday, as always, is hosted at my other blog — The Broke & the Bookish
This week’s topic: Top Ten (errr 11) Bookish Things I Need To Own!
This Etsy shop is closed at the moment but I’m DYING to get this plate and teacup!! So cute!!
I NEED THIS NECKLACE.
These socks from Modcloth are a must have, yeah? Bookish from head to toe!
We don’t currently have any room for traditional bookcases so I have to get a little creative!
THIS IS SO COOL. Decorative and I can store some books that I want to also show off!
Love this spacesaver bookshelf!
I have this awesome shelf that Will set up that spans the whole length of our couch and is directly behind it and I have books on there along with other things but I need some bookends SO BAD and I am obsessed with these. This shop had some real cute ones…hard to choose!
Perks of Being A Wallflower is one of my favorite books ever (and movies honestly!) and I love these notecards and would love to send them to all my bookish friends!
These are the cutest notecards! You can have them personalized with your name or have them plain with no name!
I love washi tape and this bookish washi tape is very high on my NEEDS list!
If you’ve ever read Looking For Alaska by John Green you know all about the final words obsession and this one is Francis Rabelais last words. From the book: “Francois Rabelais. He was a poet. And his last words were “I go to seek a Great Perhaps.” That’s why I’m going. So I don’t have to wait until I die to start seeking a Great Perhaps.”
I already have a cute wall hook thing but one could always use another wall hook…especially if it looks like old catalog card drawers right??
So tell me…which ones would YOU want in your home?? What sorts of things are on your bookish wishlist??

I love the book ends. So cute.
Rachel says
It really does not surprise me that you’ve picked some of the cutest things I’ve ever seen. You have THE BEST taste. I love the idea of bookish dinnerware! I prefer plates, bowls, etc that are more on the fun side just because they add a little something to an activity that’s as common/potentially boring as eating. I LOVE those notecards. And that print.
Jamie says
Aw thanks girl! And I agree…I love interesting pieces like that…all of my favorite mugs are something interesting!
Jennifer @ Feminist Fairy Tale Reviews says
So much cuteness! I covet the socks, the necklace, and the tape. Thanks for sharing!
Kay @ It's a Book Life says

THAT BOOK WASHI TAPE is giving me some serious palpitations right now.
Jamie says
RIGHT? I don’t even know what I’d use it for but I want it…just in case.
D. @ The Nerdy Journalist says
I’m planning my future reading room in my head right now and it will definitely include some of those storage pieces.
Catherine says
Love the teacups!
Technically this are from a kid’s furniture catalog, but I wish I had space/genuine need for this card catalog dresser.

And this library cart is adorable too (if tiny since it’s for kids)
