Bees are my favorite insect. Hard stop. I love these winged creatures and could spend days watching them as they hop flower to flower, collecting pollen, their fuzzy butts hovering magically. Spring and summer, I’m always out with my camera capturing them in their glory.
Beside my office desk is a series of three bee prints from a local shop, and bees can be seen throughout other home decor, too.
It’s only natural that bee fascination carries on through bookish goods, too. There are plenty of amazing notebooks, bookmarks, bookends, and more all featuring the delightful bee in all its glory.
These literary gifts for bee fanatics come at a range of prices. Treat yourself to a buzz of a new good for your reading life.
