What is it? Did it come in a packet from overseas or the UK? No, it came from somebody who's totally bonkers. It came from ME!! Ah, what is it you may ask? Well, it's a magnetic bookmark. This is a new 'breed' too!!! Happy Black Friday to Jane!!!!
Another small idea hits Tat Land. No, it's not in my shop (although it could be if I got anybody asking for the new version!!!!) - it's in my book!!!! No, I'm not doing a tatting pattern book it's the one I'm reading at the moment - a novel.
I thought it was time to treat myself. I decided to 're-cycle' the test bookmark and make myself one. What I REALLY love about these is that they never, ever fall out of the book. Even when you forget and chuck it across the room (not that I would EVER do that but I do have a tendency to fall asleep while reading!) this design of bookmark never falls out!!! It's honestly the answer to all I've been wanting from a bookmark - reliability!!!!
It's the only thing in my life that stays where it's put - everything else moves around behind my back!! Honestly. I put things down in this house and they MOVE. Everything does. Before you say it - it's not my memory (that's my excuse!!) - I reckon this house is haunted by gremlins who are larking around with the aged brain!!!! OR is it just 'me'?!?!?!?
Update on the post. We're having a letter delivery each day (well, Wednesday and Thursday!) and mail from 2/3 weeks ago and a few days (there must be a whole lot in between missing) is now turning up. Small packets? Tat's another story!!!

That is an awesome looking bookmark!!!

Have an awesome day! :)
Great idea, God's Kid!!!!! No snow yet, Margaret - couldn't find your email addy on your blog again or I'd have stopped by for a chat!!!!!
very nice Jane, you deserve a treat just for your self. I find myself grabbing all the trowaway bits to use for book marks, then I don't mind if they get lost or left in the book. but having a really nice bookmark might make all the difference.
Hey you have the same gremlins and black holes that keep popping in and out as I do! At least that is the excuse I use. lol.
I love the butterfly bookmark! The colors are lovely!
Love the green combinations in the book marks. I expect you are using some in your tatting books?

Jane.. what if you attach the butterfly at the other end.. the head end? The reason I even brought this up... it would be upside down when in place. Know what I mean? I think the butterfly is beautiful though!
Jane, did you actually send yourself the package?
It's pretty... you deserve it ! lol
I have the same thing happen in my house. I put something somewhere and when I go back to get it... it's gone!
Love the colors of the butterfly
