Stacking the Shelves – a weekly meme hosted by Tynga’s Reviews & Reading Reality
what’s the buzz: weekly round-up and book haul
Well, it’s been pretty quiet on the western front – I kinda took a two week break from blogging – hadn’t planned on it but sometimes you need to take a step back every so often to avoid blogger burnout!
It was my birthday a couple of weeks ago so I ended up getting a lot of pretty things (books included!) so it has been a good couple of weeks overall. The only problem is that it has taking flipping ages to photograph all of my latest acquisitions! *grumble* I’m never leaving it so long again… ah, who am I kidding – that’s never going to happen because I am eternally lazy and disorganised these days!! 🤣
- Wang Yibo posters from AliExpress: bit of a frivolous buy for me since I’m probably not going to display them (my other half might object lol) but ah well…
🖤🖤🖤
- Wangxian print from FedraArtCorner, Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian prints from Aysiadoodles: I love the shading on the Wangxian print! I am also loving the individual characters prints too.
- Sleeping Beauty and Heroines and Villains book sleeves from BookBestiesUK: These sleeves are gorgeous – the photo doesn’t do them justice as they look even better in person.
- Caraval series dust jacket sets from Moonlight Crate: The artwork is absolutely stunning – so glad I was able to snag a set!
- The Untamed acrylic stands from eBay, postcards from Redbubble: I am slowly building up my collection of these little stands and I can never resist a birthday Redbubble order!
🖤🖤🖤
- Ouija ‘Seen’ and Feysand pin sets from Virgovvitch, Wangxian pin from eBay, Wang Yibo ‘Bubble Tea’ keychain from KRSCentic, set of two pins from Moonlight Crate, and TGCF pin from Happipop pins: So many pins! I’m pretty much in heaven here haha!
- MXTX and ERHA charms from Tsukey, Soulmates, Together, Cute No Face pins and Wei Wuxian keychain from Its Cozy Autumn: Even more pin goodness…
- Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji and Jiang Cheng plush pins, Wangxian bunnies, and Cute Owl pin, Wangxian keychain, Lan Wangji heart charm and other little extras from Billacookie: I am overwhelmed at all the lovely items and extras included!
- TGCF acrylic stands from eBay: I couldn’t resist these (and I’ll probably be buying more once my bank balance has recovered haha.
🖤🖤🖤
- Elephant necklace from OneDottyDuck: This is so sweet and I love the colours! Just a really pretty piece, for sure.
- Bracelets from ShikkuShikku: I am so glad Coco has re-opened her store! I’ve really missed her stunning jewellery designs. Classy and elegant.
- Rose & Dimka candle from Bookwormcandlescraft, resin ‘crystal’ points from Tumble and Rose: I adore Vampire Academy so this was a must-buy (I got a second one as a gift for a friend and fellow VA fan!) I had bought crystal point and then liked it so much I bought another one!
