Just curious - bookmark exchange this year?

11 months ago

Any interest? Let me know!

As an aside, I bought some lovely bookmarks in Oxford (UK) on our vacation this September. Somehow I managed to misplace the bag they were in. In any case, they did not come home with me. However, I do have some from our earlier vacation to Canada. I'm always on the lookout for bookmarks when I am traveling.

I'm in as usual. I also look for bookmarks when traveling. I got some from Redwoods NP this year. Now where did I put them?

Count me in too - even though I have bookmarks galore, the exchange is too much fun to miss.

When the cards and bookmarks arrived I peeked into the envelope to see them and then stacked them up until after Christmas to enjoy. Today I finally had time to go through them and remove the wonderful bookmarks. They are now in my rather large (and growing) stack of bookmarks from which I randomly pull one for each new book. Thank you all so much for the bookmarks and for making the holidays that much more enjoyable! P.S. My envelopes were removed from my mailbox before the mail was delivered and while I think a second mailman probably took them I have not been sure so I hope you did receive one from me.

I mailed mine out yesterday. I finally got the ones I ordered and hurried home on my lunch break to get them mailed. I have to confess...there are two bookmarks in each card...except one. Even though I thought I had checked each envelope twice somehow I ended up with one leftover bookmark. So my apologies to whomever gets the card with only one bookmark in it!

It's funny that this topic of holiday cards came up because we were just discussing this in our office. We've even noticed a significant decline in the amount of cards we receive at work. Hopefully people and businesses will still value the tradition in the future. Also, thank you for the bookmarks I've received. I was trying to hold out until I received them all, but I just couldn't! It was a delight to open all of the card and bookmarks. Finally, I'm glad you like the geisha bookmarks that I sent. I always spend a lot of time trying to find a unique bookmark to send.

For those new to the board, every year a group of us exchange bookmarks. It doesn't have to be fancy, just a bookmark. We've exchanged lots of fun ones over the years including handmade, NASA missions, Peanuts, and ones reflecting where we are or where we've been. So, please let me know if you're interested and I'll let you know how to get on the list.

Not me this year. I have more than I could ever need including 16x20" frames of them down the hall, vases of them, and envelopes of like-minded ones I separated at some time when I was feeling ambitious about more frames. I will miss them, though.
