I love the bookmarks found in used books. That is fun. Once I found $10 in a used book. Moral of the story, don’t use money for bookmarks. My favorite bookmarks
Oh wow! I have not been that lucky yet. 😉
Checking yours out now!
I don’t use a lot of bookmarks, but when I do, I like the cute little character bookmarks that are also magnetic. They always make me smile. 🙂
They are just the perfect size and so cute. Especially if they match the book you’re reading! 🙂
Thank you for stopping by!
You have quite a bookmark collection! I lose my bookmarks so often. I started using magnetic bookmarks because those are harder for me to lose for some reason.
That’s smart! Thank you for stopping by! 🙂
The hand-painted bookmark is beautiful!

It is! I’m too scared to actually use it though. 😉
Nice bookmarks! I really like the wood one, and I’ve found bookmarks in used books too! Here is my Top Ten Tuesday.
Thank you! I’m taking a look at yours now! 🙂
These bookmarks are all so pretty.
My TTT.
Thank you! Taking a lot at your blog now. I’m loving all the bookmarks today!
You did a thorough job of categorizing all the wonderful bookmarks we have. I love finding bookmarks in books. I found one in a library book last week!
Oh yay! It’s always a little bonus you don’t expect. Plus it always makes me wonder who was reading it, and why didn’t they finish?? 😉
These are all so lovely. I like that you keep bookmarks you find in used books.
I’ve also come across movie ticket stubs and old airline tickets. It’s always fun to see those too.
Thank you for stopping by! 🙂
I use book swag as bookmarks, too. I don’t know what else you’re supposed to do with it?
Ha! Yep, seems like the only logical use to me!
Dedra, what a lovely collection of bookmarks. I particular like the initialed ones and I am a little sad that I’ve never found a bookmark in any of the second hand books I’ve bought! Except for a safety leaflet which I presume the previous owner was using a makeshift bookmark.
Thank you! I’m so surprised by how many bookmarks I’ve come across in used books! I must purchase a lot of used books that people decide not to finish reading. 😉
Thank you for stopping by!
I may be the source of some of those found bookmarks….not yours, but an assortment scattered across Canada nonetheless… >.>
That said, I’m always in favour of swag. Swag bookmarks bring back memories of a book or a convention for me 🙂
Ha! Well, someone somewhere is so excited to find your bookmarks.
I agree. Swag bookmarks always hold great memories!
I do love finding bookmarks in used books. It feels like a present!
Yes, a little bonus gift that you weren’t expecting. 🙂
Wow, what a collection! I love finding bookmarks in used books, I like to imagine the book’s previous owners and what they might have been like.
Yes!! Same here. And did they really stop reading the book where I found the bookmark?? 😉
I like that wood one!
It’s one of my favorites, and from a special place, which means I rarely use it. ?
I love the wooden bookmarks! It’s also cool how you got good bookmark finds in used books! Thanks for stopping by my TTT post.
Oooh, the wood bookmark is fabulous! I’ve always thought they were so beautiful. <3 I always thought it's so interesting when you find bookmarks in used books! It's like a teensy peak into the life of the person who owned the book before you.
Yes! It gives the book even more of a story. ?
OMJG I HAVE THAT SPIDER ONE AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT (it glows in the darkkkk!!!!!!!) I love this!!
Really?? I had no idea it glows in the dark! I’ll be trying that out tonight! 😉
