Today I’m busy binding books and keeping abreast of the ‘make everything in time for holiday shows’ schedule.  But I’m also pondering this design from a couple of years ago.  Specifically, the bound-in bookmarks, complete with bead and coin detail (or without).

Personally, I love bookmarks in my journals, for easy access to the next blank page.  I think they also add a bit of a finishing touch and complete the experience of using the book.  But what about in larger books?  Sketchbook size?  If you have any thoughts on this, I’d love to know!  Leave a comment below.
