Gifts For Book Lovers Help Fund Our Work
Submitted by logan on November 26, 2010 - 10:29pm
Book Wish Foundation has just opened a shop on Zazzle, where you can buy gifts for the book lovers in your life and help support our mission to help needy readers at the same time. The shop features book-themed artwork on t-shirts, bags (to bring to book sales), mugs, magnets, and many other items. Click here to visit now (and take advantage of Zazzle's holiday deals), or read more about the artists and our future plans for the shop below.
The artwork in the shop has been created by volunteer artists from around the world: Bulgaria, Iran, New Zealand, the UK, and the US. The styles and subjects of their work vary greatly, so we hope you'll find something you like or the perfect gifts for your bibliophile friends. (Know someone who loves used book sales? Check out our tote bags.) Here are a few examples of items you can find and customize in the shop.
There are nearly 200 items to choose from in the shop, and we will be adding more as these artists create additional designs and as new artists join the project. (Any artists who would like to contribute are welcome to contact us.) Eventually, the shop will also feature "official" gear for Book Wish Foundation...but stay tuned to learn more about that later.
Zazzle.com hosts the shop and handles all of the shipping, payment processing, customer services, etc. They are having a lot of special deals leading up to Christmas, and most items can be bought by Dec. 10 with economy shipping and still arrive for Christmas eve.
So, if you are still looking for a gift for someone who loves to read, why not buy from our shop and know that you and the gift recipient will also be supporting Book Wish in our efforts to give the world's neediest readers the books they most want to read.
