Post some original gift ideas for those literary nerds in your life.

Maybe a bit late since the gift exchange is over and people are just waiting for their packages. But I just found this Etsy store and thought it was kind of cool and I needed a reason to post it.

Wicked?

__________________________
Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.

Etsy also has all kinds of paintings done on old dictionary and encyclopedia pages, which are really cool. Honestly just go to Etsy.com and search "books" and you'll find all kinds of great stuff!

Nobody has mentioned the Book Scented perfume yet.

I think there are several different perfume makers making it or something siilar at this point, so I will not post any pic, just mention it.

Most Etsy shops have very affordable international shipping.
