Bookmarks

[scarey55]

I had loads of French and Belgian Franks left over when they changed to Euros so I laminated them with include some ribbon hanging out and use them as bookmarks.

I've always got a book on the go!
I've been using ferry tickets until recently, and then when we moved out here, I found a little note left by my daughter, so I've been using that instead.

Receipts are pretty useful to have to hand in an emergency!!!!

now THATS a good idea!!!!...I've got loads of lire!- they'd make a nice pressie and a sort of 'holiday feel' at the same time!

I did hear about the librarian who found a rasher of bacon being used as a bookmark. I think it was cooked.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Sorry about that ! Can't work out how to do the most basic thing! Jeanid's comment made me spit out my coffee!

Mine is one Mr HF drew for me Christmas time, It was just a piece of paper now it is a treasure.

When ever I buy a book second hand I always flick through it just in case the original owner left something interesting in it!

Ever heard of the "Left Book Club" buying one S/H a few years ago I found one of their original adverts/fliers from the 40s.
I gave it to a friend who collects left book club.

I have one I got free at an eco-type event. It's produced by the East Riding council's recycling group and is a bit jazzy and green so that when I drop it on the floor (regular occurrence whiile I'm reading) I can easily find it. It had a compost bin on it. Nice!

A peice of paper that came with the books, I reserved, with my name on.

Vary quite a lot, shamefully admit that at least one of the books I'm reading (always have 3 or 4 on the go) has the corner folded over, one is a hard back so am using the dust cover and one I have a scenerary shot bookmark of the Loften Islands from when I was there last year. Have a nice cat ones somewhere which I was given but guess that must be in a book on the shelves as I can't find it.

If I like an author I buy their books hardback, and like Alison use the dust cover. For general reads and paperbacks I use old Christmas card fronts.

First suitable item to hand. Recently that has been one of those irritating cards the postman leaves when he can't be bothered to deliver a parcel! (actually our postie is pretty good, he knows where we prefer things left and does that, or leaves it next door, but we get a card then too. Mostly we get cards when it has to be signed for and no-one in next door)
