Happy Tuesday! Today’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is (as you may have guessed) ‘books I want to see under the tree’.
Books are always a good idea to have on a Christmas list. Why? Well first … duh. đ Second, they don’t go out of style and they won’t not fit if you gain or lose a few pounds. They don’t spoil and they don’t die. This makes them a perfect choice for those family members or friends who save your leftover Christmas ideas and use them for other gift-giving occasions too. In fact, I was tempted to just copy and paste last year’s list for today’s post (i didn’t) because I still wouldn’t mind seeing any of these books under my tree!
Instead though I’m going to look at some ‘how to’ books that I would love to own:
Clicking on the book cover will take you to the buy page.

What about you? What is something you would like to learn how to do?
Oooh, I may have to have the hand lettering book! đ
right?
I have a hand lettering or two on my list and The Beautiful Word Devotional. And as always, many, many books of fiction. I enjoy buying books for our grands too.
i am the book-gifting aunt đ
I have told my family I really wouldn’t mind if every gift under the tree were books or gift cards. I hate when people say , “don’t you get tired of books?” âšď¸
LOL yes! i totally relate
Oh, my daughters would love that Hand Lettering book. Thanks for posting it!
yay! you’re welcome đ
The hand lettering book looks neat! I used to do calligraphy, but I haven’t had (made?) time for it in decades. I really enjoyed used real ink and creating beautiful letters.
i bet that was beautiful!
I think it’s fun that most of these are different than what you blog about. I think we could all use some help with organization and being busy!
i know i certainly need constant reminders to just REST…. but also to declutter lol
Such a unique list Carrie! All of these looks interesting đ
I hope you get the books on your wishlist đ

A couple of these books are good for people with collecting problems. I have my own saying “Cluttered mind, Cluttered house”. So we must clear our heads first.
so true!
I hope you get all these!

I would like to someday learn to watercolor. It’s on my bucket list. Just don’t have time for it right now đ
watercolors are so pretty!
I like the sound of the hand lettering book. It’s something I’d like to explore. Hope you enjoy the holidays!
thanks, Alicia! You too đ
Ooo that handlettering book looks good. When I was younger I use to do calligraphy. I wish I’d kept at it. Now that hand lettering is big I want to start doing it again.

I have so many books on my TRL that I think Santa would have to make several deliveries to my house.
