Yes tell me.

I own many, but have also misplaced a few.

The thing about bookmarks is...

You can never find them when you need them! >_>;;

But I like them pretty.

But... also functional?

Those fancy little tassels are nice, however they get annoying and fall off.

A simple adorned bookmark; I've bought a few (like 3)

Even have LOTR ones. And HP ones. Sometimes I just use firm pieces of rectangular paper/cardstock. Or make my own.

(This is pretty close to a repeat thread, but I think it's time for a new one. I'm going to lock the old one and save it.)

I don't normally use them because I hardly ever find them, but the ones I have are quite nice. Recently, I found a Fair Trade bookmark (made in Egypt out of papyrus) in a long overdue library book. The book -wasn't- mine (I had no idea to whom it belonged), so I returned it and treated myself to the bookmark.

How lucky =] And I'm sorry about the redundancy of this thread >o<
I was just at the library last week. Wish I'd find random bookmarks.

I use Yu-Gi-Oh cards. They are portable, durable, and they make for nice conversation when you decide you are done with the book. 3nodding I also use magic cards, but I don't understand Magic as well as I do Yu-Gi-oh, so the conversation isn't as great.

For the longest time I was using a business card to a guitar store. Now I'm using the money-less prepaid Gaia card that I bought a while ago. I pretty much never use a 'real' bookmark. It's always a receipt or note or something.

That's actually a cool idea. I'd probably use a Pokemon card though =3

Yes same here.

I've been trying a little magnetic Webkinz bookmark. Most of the time though, I skip using the magnet and just stick it in the book. The magnet has been useful when I'm afraid the bookmark will come out in a bag (it kind of clips around the page to lock in place).

Interesting, I have the urge to buy a new bookmark now. 3nodding

I have a few bookmarks...not that they're ever around when I need them. Lately I've been using a strip off of a post-it note. I drew a heart on one end of it, and called it a bookmark. Works for me 3nodding

Yu-Gi-Oh cards are esier to find for me. Although I would probably use a Pokemon card if I saw one lying around my room somewhere. I usualy keep a card or two in my backpack for when I start a book somewhere. They are so durable it's rather convinient.

I use actual bookmarks. Most of mine are anime based and came from my library.

I do have 3 I got from Barnes and Nobel:
Yuki- Fruits Basket- Yay!
Kyo- Fruits Basket- missing....
Miroku- Inuyasha- Only one I've not used

I've got only a few bookmarks, but they're all made. They're actually very simple; just pretty cards cut with a coloured paper backing and a string with lovely beads on the end. I want to make more seeing as I read a lot of different types of books at a time.

User ImageI have a cute bookmark that's a metal one, with a cool saying on it. I don't remember what it is, but I have other bookmarks from my school and the Library. I always collect them if I never seen it and like it.
Oh I also have Manga bookmarks, bookmarks that have a Manga series on it.User Image
