How Two Book Lovers Built Marginalia in Scotland
Welcome to Marginalia: a cosy, Scotland-based shop for book lovers, stationery enthusiasts, and thoughtful gift-givers.
We’re Neev and Jason, the creators behind Marginalia, based in Stirling, Scotland - and at our core, we’re exactly what you’d expect:
• Lifelong bibliophiles
• Devoted stationery lovers
• Passionate creators of all things bookish
Marginalia started from a simple idea: to create curated book boxes and literary-inspired gifts that make reading feel special again. What began as a shared love of books and design has grown into a small independent shop focused on crafting meaningful, personal experiences for readers.
Our signature “Blind Date with a Book” mystery book boxes are carefully selected based on your chosen genre, giving you the excitement of discovering something new without the overwhelm of choosing. Whether you’re a seasoned reader or just starting your reading journey, we’re here to match you with stories you’ll love.
Alongside our book boxes, we also create artisanal bookmarks and postcards - perfect for adding a little extra magic to your reading routine or gifting to a fellow bookworm.
Everything we make is rooted in what we love most: great stories, beautiful design, and the small details that turn reading into an experience.
We’re so glad you’re here. If you’d like to follow along, you can find us on Instagram and Facebook for updates, new releases, and behind-the-scenes moments.
Thank you for supporting our small business - it truly means the world.
