5 out of 5 starsThis is beautifully crafted and very sturdy. However one wasn’t strong enough to hold the big books I wanted, but putting two back to back seemed to do the trick

5 out of 5 starsWow! The book ends are beautiful and so well made! Wanda was wonderful to work with and created a custom color palette to match our baby girl’s nursery. They look beautiful on her bookshelf.

5 out of 5 starsAdorable and arrived much faster than expected. It's a little lighter than I anticipated, but it's sturdy enough to keep my books in place.

5 out of 5 starsOMG is all I can say! I am absolutely in love with these bookends! They came right on time as I just gave birth to my son this past Saturday on Halloween, I came home from the hospital and there it was waiting for my son! The seller is super nice and understanding & responds in a timely manner. I can not stress enough about the high quality of these book ends. I’m currently waiting on another shelf to arrive for his books but for now it’s a complete rainbow 🌈 and goes PERFECTLY with his nursery decor. You NEED these! Don’t think twice, I am super picky and have watched this item for some time and let’s just say I have not been let down!! Thank you thank you thank you! What a beautiful and times less item!!

ABOUT WANDA:
As a child, I grew up in rural Maine climbing apple trees, skipping stones, balancing on old rock walls and creating lots of gifts for family members. These gifts ranged from paintings, collages, wood boxes, baskets – you name it, I did it. This filled me with such joy! This is the same feeling I have today when I send one of my products to a parent creating a special nursery or a child working on a “big kids” room.
It was in 2003 that I rekindled my passion for designing and creating when we moved into our 1830’s New England farmhouse. With lots of imagination and a little non-toxic paint, I was able to transform neglected bedrooms and old dressers into creative, fun designs that my children adore. When I started “redesigning” my children’s bedrooms and furniture, I knew it was time to extend my craving for design to gifts and products for others. Maple Shade Kids was born and here I am designing, creating and loving life!
