Silver book earrings January 11, 2007

These sterling silver earrings are quite nice. The first pear features a little bookworm on a book. The second pair are little open books that read “I love to read”. When you order, you can choose between hoops or wires. I think I would go for the bookworms on hoops.

Book quote bracelet January 3, 2007

Most book gadgets seem to be made for women. Unfortunately. This bracelet looks very unisex to me. I love the quote on it that seems to be ‘hand written’: I cannot live without books. The bracelet is handmade of silver. You can adjust it to fit your wrist.

Book safe December 29, 2006

What’s a better place to store your precious stuff then a book? You put it on the shelf next to your ‘normal’ books and no thief can spot the difference. You can buy them in all shapes and sizes. You can browse the web by typing ‘book safe’ or ‘book fault’. But you can also make one yourself! It is a lot cheaper that way.
