Of course books make the best gifts for bibliophiles, but some of those oversize tomes don’t fit comfortably in a stocking. Here’s a list of alternative stocking stuffers.
We are affiliates for Goldspot and Amazon.
Sippable:
- Chapters Tea
- Reformed Roasters (honestly, I was so amused by the descriptions, I had a hard time choosing the coffee!)
Burnable:
- Lamplighter literary (Not just literary, not just a candle…there’s a brilliant surprise under the lid! I bought several…mostly for me.)
Books and pens:
- Reading journal (buy from Amazon)
- Commonplace book for writing down quotes. A small travel journal also works nicely. (both
- Fountain pen from Goldspot. They have lovely notebooks, too. (see above for affiliate link)
- Literary coloring books for listeners (Narnia) (Alice in Wonderland) (Little House on the Prairie) (Beware of doing a search for fairy tale coloring books–some of the covers are best avoided)
Notable:
- Book darts
- Embosser
- Bookplates
- Book Lover’s calendar (okay, this won’t fit in a stocking, but it makes a lovely gift anyway)
Literary souvenirs:
- The One Ring for Tolkien fans. My son recommends this.
- “I still believe in 398.2” necklace (or t-shirt)
- Miniature bookstore because we love books in all sizes (again, this may be too large for a stocking stuffer, but what fun!
More ideas:
- Bookish gifts for boys (but not just boys!)
- Bookish gifts for girls (but not just girls!)
