Your special writer friend deserves a special gift that celebrates their craft. Simultaneously support a small, artistic business and your writer friend will be doubly happy!

GrammaticalArt. For that writer friend that always sends perfectly punctuated text messages and cannot help but correct your grammar, try a piece from Grammatical Art. Coffee cups, t-shirts, and totes can do the cheeky correcting for them. The shop has some pieces with a political lean, for the George Orwell in your life.

Storiarts. Display a bit of prose from a favorite classic novel on fingerless gloves, scarves, pillow covers, baby blankets, cloth bags, the list goes on. The fonts and artwork on each item align with the novel in an elegant arrangement. There is a literary something for everyone here.

If your friend is expecting, a baby blanket with matching hat featuring a passage from Alice in Wonderland or The Little Prince would become a treasured keepsake.

Perhaps your writer friend can be inspired by their favorite tortured writing heroines, like Jo Marsh or Anne Shirley, alongside them on a tote bag.

Forage Candle. Is your friend as passionate about the environment as they are about books? This shop makes vegan, all-the-frees, non GMO soy candles encased in clear jars with modern font for a minimalist look that suits any home decor. The shop owner must also be a writer if the witty scent descriptions are any indication. Who does not envision the aromas of gin, jazz, and jealousy wafting around them when they read The Great Gatsby?

Bumper Box of Delights. What about a classic book with a unique cover? Most writers have a bookshelf begging for covers in pretty prints. Shop owner, Tracy, resells classics in gorgeous hard covers like watermark satin, or in original slipcovers. She also wraps them in tissue paper and ribbon before shipment so they can go from your mailbox to the gift table with ease.

Carmella's Jewelry. For the stylish writer that needs a bit of shine with their inspiration, try a piece of jewelry. They can look at their wrist and be encouraged in their craft. Shop owner, Carmella, also has pieces geared toward runners.

Literature Lodge. Give your writer a pun in the form of a writer's block they can keep on their desk. Select a block from one of the existing authors or ask the shop to create your own block with the author name of your choice. The shop has other writing gifts such as book ends (large writer's blocks that serve a dual purpose), tote bags, and wall art.

Convertible Girl Shop: For the writer who enjoys a glass of wine, check out the eclectic wine charms featuring book covers or writing trinkets from Convertible Girl Shop. If you like the style but not the idea of wine charms, the shop carries necklaces and pill boxes with vintage dictionary imagery. I love the type writer font of these charms reminding one to answer the very important questions when writing:

Pottery by Shikha. A book-shaped vase adds a rustic detail to a desk or shelf. Each vase is hand made from clay guaranteeing a unique look in texture and color. Stick a bloom in and you don't even have to wrap it!

Paper Elation. Reminiscent of library cards, these quotation cards from Paper Elation are perfect for a writer's vision board. Shop owner, Olivia, types the quotes using her 1962 Smith-Corona. Whether empowering or inspirational, your writer will get the message.

Zeppelin Bay. Wall art prints featuring vintage typewriters or pen sets could decorate an office. Available as prints or digital download.
