I have seen antique silver ones for bookmarks and page turners, and that was what made me think of the poll.

I just wouldn't know what to do with it wile reading.

I guess a dollar bill would be cheaper than buying a nice bookmark, too.

That is lovely, and I bet it feels special in a book.

I have been given decorative bookmarks in the past and despite trying, I never got to grips with using them.

@bytebro
That is excellent!

@Maker_of_Things Both random scraps AND pretty special bookmarks

@Maker_of_Things not being from the US, they have enough novelty to be interesting!

I made it from the front of a pack of
incense sticks when we lived in Germany and laminated it years later as it was getting very tatty 🤭

@Maker_of_Things Random scraps, open faced down, folded corners. I do like pretty bookmarks, but I tend to lose them. Or if they're really nice, I'll be afraid to use them for fear of losing them in a library book (though that might make a nice suprise for the next reader). The best is a fancy hardcover with a ribbon.

@Maker_of_Things I love picking bookmarks up from libraries and bookstores. I grabbed four from the Kansas City Library when I was there because they had so many cool ones!

I guess if it keeps the page, it's a bookmark!
