How many of your books have a dog-earred page, random receipt, airline ticket or scrap of paper instead of an official bookmark? If you’re like me, almost all of the books I’m currently reading are like that.
A fantastic bookmark is on the market that “blings” your books – and makes the perfect gift for the book hound friend or family member, hostess or teacher – Book Bling Bookmarks.
Founded in 2008 by intuitive consultant Jessica Derksen, Book Bling Bookmarks is a custom beaded bookmark you can color-coordinate to your book or customize based on your interests by picking the color scheme and charms you want in used in the bookmark. She’ll pick the beads for you.
All bookmarks are handmade and usually ship a week after order, so hurry for Christmas delivery. She does carry a couple of stock designs but most of what she makes are custom orders. She says she designs them through intuition – what feels right to her once you give her colors and specific charm selections, if you want charms.
You can choose from basic bead colors – blue, green, red, pink, purple or aqua or from jeweled beads (a little fancier) in blue, green, purple or aqua. Then you choose the charms to add, or you can go with beads only.
Charm possibilities come in silver and gold and include dragonflies, butterflies, the cross, a flower, and word charms such as “Peace”, “Believe” and “Love.”
The pricing makes purchasing multiple book marks more attractive – the more you buy the more you save. Please check the site for pricing and ordering specifics. As you can see from the pictures, it looks fabulous to have 2 or 3 in your books at a time.
Please check out www.bookbling.biz today and get that hard-to-please friend a one-of-a-kind gift today!
Full disclosure: yes, that is my book featured in the photo “How to Raise an American Patriot” (also a great gift idea) to show you can customize the color scheme.
