More bookmarks… which do you prefer rounded or square corners on yours? (Designs by .svgsociety)

03/02/2024

More bookmarks being listed this weekend. I have a whole load left over from a market so these will be added to for all you book lovers out there.

01/02/2024

Bookmarks coming to the shop. These are perfect for recording what you liked about your book. I love the idea of doing this for every book I read this year and then looking back at the end of the year and seeing what I have enjoyed. Printed on 400gsm card so they are lovely and thick.

My go to for inspiration when I need it are:
1. Pinterest - I use it for everything! Whether it’s craft related or if I’m just looking for food inspiration. There are so many things to look at, I literally spend hours going down a hole of things to look at. I have way too many boards.
2. Instagram - goes without saying really, there are so many great artists / creators out there. I love seeing what new things people are coming up with.
3. YouTube - sometimes I just want to watch someone making something and see what techniques they are using. YouTube is perfect for this. I’m a visual learner so I learnt to punch needle and some crochet stitches and it has been amazing for learning how to do macrame.

Where do you go for inspiration? I’d love to know.

Who’s a true crime lover?! I know I am! I actually did criminology at uni too! So I love hearing all about the how’s and the why’s.

My go to is my Faveourite Murder, but I’ve started listening to murder they wrote, which I’m enjoying so far.

True crime tote now live in my shop
