my mini bookmarks are quite the hit

LOOK! Tiny things made by me! I love these adorable bookmarks and now I am on a quest to make more. I’ve started a list of subjects to create 6 illustrations to build out more sets of bookmarks. I’m unstoppable.

Last month I took my newest merch gems out into the world and they were a hit! My mini bookmarks are delightful because they are tiny little pieces of art for your book. Tiny things are my favorite so putting together tiny bookmarks with tiny drawings of things like a mozzarella stick or a mini number two pencil, you can’t ask for anything cuter than that.

But I have to fess up to you. I don’t use bookmarks. HA! I dog ear my page like an animal. I have tested out my bookmarks though, and I think I have now been converted to a bookmark user.

Typically when I use regular bookmarks they end up falling out of my book because they are too big (I will read a book just based on its size. If it’s tiny, it must be read). Sometimes I end up using a receipt or some lovely piece of trash I have floating around and that feels boring. Buuuut, my mini bookmarks snuggle right into the gutter of the book. Because they fit so perfectly they don’t fall out, get beat up, and they leave a small gap to find your page quickly.

Take a look, it’s in your book, the mini bookmarks. You’re welcome for that ear worm 😉

Wait. I just had an idea for a set: a reading bookmark set. What are rectangle shaped things that relate to books?! Do you have any requests?

Do you have any ideas for themes you’d get a kick out of seeing? And, tell me true, how do you save your spot?

I am about to hope into two books this week: “The Hobbit” and “Why the Caged Bird Sings.” What bookmarks should I use? Maybe I’ll go with my current favs: the pencil and the Bic lighter.
