For those of you who don't "know" me, I am a librarian in my "real life"! I always loved books growing up but I have to be honest... this was not my decided career path (shh don't tell). I was a history major in college and had my heart set on working in some type of archives where I would sit and swoon over endless old ephemera and artifacts (sigh). Even though I pursued a Masters in Library & Information Science with a museum and archival focus, I quickly found out that I was not going to get a job very easily in that very specific field! So, here I am, working my day job as a librarian and "doing art" on the side.
I'm in love with my "book art" but still enjoy doing many other things! With my love of books, creating, decorating, and gift-giving I started creating "Book Bundles"! These Book Bundles are made up of books that I have wrapped individually in various sets, making them TOP SECRET! They are grouped by genre, theme, subject, etc. and presented in a perfectly pretty and/or fun package sometimes including an extra gift tied at the top! Don't worry, the label will give you a little hint at what's inside so you can choose a bundle to suite your needs! And, before you ask, yes, they are books I have purchased secondhand (reduce, reuse, recycle, right?!), but I have tried to compile books that are in a like-new condition. So stop by one of the shops that I am in and see what you can find for yourself or for an already wrapped gift that is ready to go for any occasion!
