I present to you the books, in all their glory…
Ordered on a Thursday night (with standard shipping), received on Monday. Not too shabby if you ask me.
And, of course, I love them.
{images by me, taken right after the books were received. So if you enlarged the photos and are wondering about the little particles on some of the books – it’s just the shipping packaging stuff that I neglected to notice in my excited state. Sorry about that.}
Thank you!
What is the background – fabric? Wallpaper? Who makes it? Anything with lattice and pale blue catches my eye every time.
Can’t thank you enough – I ordered the entire set too last week after I saw your post! I cannot wait to display (and read) them!!!
They are so beautiful!
Oh my, how badly I do want these.
these are beauties for sure!!! like being a new mama… you must be so proud. :-)
Excellent! I’m glad I ordered them after seeing your post :-) Waiting for mine to arrive in the mail any day now…
The books are gorgeous, for sure. But I too am wondering what that blue latice background is. I am hoping it’s a bedspread and still available somewhere.
Love your blog.
Thank you so much for posting the pictures! They truly are beautiful. How exciting!!
how exciting! they are lovely.
I love them, and I love the peek at your dining room fabric!
I love these and, like others, am seriously tempted. They are going on my wish list for sure!
Oh my. Those are so pretty. I want them.
I love those books – I wish I room for them.
As for cheap seagrass – try ordering from homedecorators.com – they are probably the cheapest. I HOpe this helps!!!
Hey Jenny,
I forgot where you got these, remind me please.
Here's the link, Sarah –

There are no thumbnail photos of the books, but this link lists all 10 in the series.
Good luck!
Thank you SO much for posting this! I have been lusting after those books since they first came out last year and I was ecstatic to see that they were available a little closer to home and for a fraction of the price. I just ordered a set! I am beyond excited about this!!
I just came across your blog for the first time tonight and I love it. :)
ooooh thanks. Mine are shipping too. I think I’ll get them today (being in Canada, it’s even quicker!)
lovely! thanks for posting where to get them in your other post. i just ordered the full set & i'm so excited to get them!!
They’re divine! Where do they come from? They look vintage. The one with the chandeliers is so cute!

kWow, those books are absolutely beautiful!! I really want them but they're sold out now :((
I'm gonna do my best, those are classics everyone should have at home and it's even better if they can look beautiful and make our shelves a work of art!!
