Bayou Bound Books’ First Christmas Collection Is Here

If you’re the kind of person who wants to be wrapped up in something warm with a hot drink in your hands the second it gets a little chilly, this one’s for you.

The very first Porch Stories Christmas collection is officially here, and I’m so happy to finally share it. I wanted pieces you’d actually reach for on those slow, cozy holiday mornings, whether you’re curled up with a book, sitting on the porch, or opening gifts with the people you love. And because this is Bayou Bound Books, Santa had to come down the bayou on an airboat.

Vintage Christmas is making a comeback, so I leaned all the way into that old-school holiday feel.

Here’s what’s in the collection:

Santa’s Bayou Airboat Crewneck in Sand and Dark Mocha. Soft, neutral colors that go with everything and feel like the holidays without being loud about it.

Santa’s Bayou Airboat Tee in Brown Savana. For those Southern Christmases where it’s somehow still warm enough for short sleeves.

Vintage Bow Stamp Christmas Mug. For all my coffee and tea lovers out there. Fill it up, grab your book, and stay a while.

And keep an eye on the shop, because a few more pieces might sneak into the collection before the season’s over. 🎄

These also make really easy gifts for the reader in your life, or for yourself, because you deserve something cozy too.

The Christmas collection will be available until January 1, so if you’re a last-minute shopper or want to treat yourself after the holidays, you’ve still got time. After that, it’s gone.

Shop the Christmas collection on the Bayou Bound Books website before it disappears.

The Porch Stories Halloween Collection Is Here

Y'all, spooky season is officially here and I finally made the thing.

The Porch Stories Halloween Collection is live in the shop, and it's limited edition, so once October 31st hits, it's gone.

If you've been around for a while, you know Porch Stories. It's been a minute since I've posted one (I know, I know), but the porch hasn't gone anywhere, and this collection is my little love letter to it. Same porch. Different kind of night.

Here's what's in it:

The Halloween Tee has our vintage pumpkin badge on the front and the full moonlit porch scene on the back, Spanish moss, cypress trees, rocking chair and all.

The Halloween Hoodie has the same front and back designs, just cozier, for the nights that finally cool down enough to sit outside.

The Halloween Mug is 15 oz with the pumpkin badge on both sides, for your morning coffee or late night tea while you read something you probably shouldn't before bed.

And honestly, even though it's a Halloween collection, none of this is just an October thing. It's Southern Gothic. Spanish moss and cypress trees don't stop being creepy on November 1st, so you can wear it and use it all year.

A couple quick questions I know y'all will have:

Is the Porch Stories Halloween Collection available all year?
No, it's a limited collection. The tee, hoodie, and mug are only available through October 31.

Will my order arrive by Halloween?
Each item is made just for you once you order, so it takes a little extra time. To be safe, order by mid-October if you want it in time for Halloween.

Grab yours before the porch light goes out.

See y'all on the porch.
