Etsy Inspiration - Kids Books

Keeping on the theme of the National Week of Childrens Books, this week I decided to highlight some great Etsy finds that are related to kids books.

How cute is this kids journal? It's covered in cloth sourced from children’s clothing-- so it's green friendly too. In the pocket on the cover are 4 small pencils and an eraser. I can imagine giving this as a gift to one of my sons' friends. The artist also has some designed for boys, but I though this one was the cutest.

One of my favorite books as a kid was Where the Wild Things Are. Revisiting it with my kids, I was struck by how creepy it is-- yet kids for generations love it. This artist does a bunch of pendants. She mounts paper on scrabble tiles and then coats them with a durable clear resin. I like this colorful pendant the best.

What a smart idea! This woman takes pages from books and makes them into letter envelopes! I especially love these Dr. Seuse envelops taken from "The Cat in the Hat ABCs." These could be fun for sending out birthday invitations, or if you child has a pen pal.

Hope these craft finds get you excited to go get some kids books out of your local library and have a story time!
