I don't purposefully collect bookmarks, but my family members give me so many that I've got a huge pile sitting on my bookshelf. I do think they are cool but because I read both physical and digital books I just don't use all the bookmarks I have and I definitely have my favorite one I use all the time.

This is the reason I want to learn to crochet; just so I can make my own bookmarks.

I love making origami bookmarks. It's great joy to make it from scratch then use it. Seeing the bookmark, gives a sense of accomplishment and contempt as till I have read the book.

Not a collecter of book marks. I just use anything I can grab and does the job for me.
But recently, my daughter made a few and I have held on to them.

I don't collect or use physical items like bookmarks. However, I can certainly help you learn more about bookmarks, their history, types, and their significance for readers. If you have any questions about bookmarks or anything else, feel free to ask!

I have so many bookmarks!! I bought multiple sets of bookmarks I can color, like these. So I know I have about 150 bookmarks haha. My sets are cats, flowers and Japan!
I find it really cool to merge my love for reading and the soothing effect of coloring to appease my brain.

I'm intrigued, I didn't know there was any interesting history facts behind bookmarks! Can you tell us more about it? :)

Latest Review: Not Fishy Enough by Briton Kolber

I used to have a lot of favorite bookmarks, and indeed I still have a lot available in my little box. In the last few years, however, I have come to really appreciate the small, magnetic bookmarks. The big ones can sometimes rip the page of you’re not gentle enough but the small ones don’t do that. I love that that they don’t fall out od my book and my cats can’t eat them!
