The Bookish Life
We have been selling our handmade items here on etsy and at local craft shows and markets for more than 10 years, and we love it more every year!
While we have always used recycled items in our work, we have focused more and more on working with repurposing books. One book goes a long way, and it's so fun to find new ways to use something as simple as book text! When Chad worked at a used bookstore and we realized how many books get thrown out (recycled, but not in a way that preserves the text,) we realized that we could save these damaged books and use them in a new way.
We both love reading and have a quite massive book collection of our own. You can probably guess some of our favorite authors by looking through items in our shop. We also collect an obscene amount of records and vintage everything, and drink a lot of coffee.
We LOVE our customers! We wouldn't be here without you and appreciate your support, kind feedback and fun literary chit-chat. Thanks so much for stopping by our shop. Please send us a message if you have questions or just want to say hello!

Payment
If you prefer to pay by check or money order, please contact me.
Shipping
If additional VAT or customs fees are incurred on international orders, these charges are the responsibility of the buyer.
If you prefer to upgrade to a more speedy shipping method or to add tracking or insurance, please contact me when you place your order so a custom listing can be created or an updated invoice can be sent.
In most cases I use padded bubble mailers to package items. Cards are mailed in envelopes with cardboard backing to avoid bent corners. Prints are packaged in sturdy cardboard envelopes.
