LYNAI: I have tons of used envelopes at home. Now I find them quite useful.

Hmmm, I remember nakagamit na pala ako ng earphones as bookmark :-)
Everything. One could mark 4 pages from an earphone - 1 for the jack, 1 for each of the earplugs, and another for the loose wire. :-)
^good god...hands down na aq sa mga sagot nyo...
More bookmarks ideas! When old books are completely beyond repair, use the spine as a lovely old bookmark. Love!(view spoiler)
Ycel, are you selling these? :-) PM me for price hahaha!
nice. I wonder if those came from real books. What a massacre!
MARK: Unfortunately not. We used to have these kinds of books in my lolo's house, but Ondoy happened so...I wish I still have them though. This is one of my Pinterest finds :)
^oh.... I'd like to have one of them..those are really really cool...

I don't really use bookmarks. I just try to remember the page number or the part I'm reading. Pero there were times I've used receipts, tissue, and.. strands of my hair. I have long hair so I pluck one and insert it in the book. XD
Have you guys ever experienced this: you know you have a ton of bookmarks kept in a box somewhere - in your room, in your library, in the office even - but at the precise moment that you need it, you can't find one? It happens to me all the time. XD
Ang gamot dyan, ikalat ang mga bookmarks all over the house. Hahaha. Parang easter egghunt. Kapag nagbabasa ka sa living room, tapos biglang may madudukot na bookmark sa gilid ng sofa... Coolness. Joke.Atty Monique, it does happen to me kahit na may book mark ako sa pencilcase, yung box ko ng bookmarks asa bookshelf din (view spoiler) pero kung ala talaga, lalabas na si Mcgyver sabay hanap ng tissue, papel, bill statements, candy wrapper etc...

Nik: I was looking more at the book titles than the bookmarks. :D
@ranee, like the idea of magkalat ng libro sa buong bahay... saw a pic of a house, where a book can be found in every nook of the house, it was so cool!!!!@Nik: like the books.. heheheh cute bookmark....
Angus wrote: "Nik: I was looking more at the book titles than the bookmarks. :D"Right. Wahahahaha. I thought of that too. Hahahaha.

The Caution bookmark was actually for the Banned Books Week. Got it when I bought a second-hand book.
Angus wrote: "Nik: I was looking more at the book titles than the bookmarks. :D"I was also about to say, Where are the bookmarks?" Hahaha! Na distract ako sa titles. :))
I covet that bookmark because it has "Malaysia" on it. I presume it was bought there? Haha. (view spoiler)
ayoko nung receipt mismo ng book. Masakit tingnan. lalo na kung hindi worth it lol. Ang ginagamit kong bookmark:*ribbon (cool kaya)
*cellphone pag nagmamadali
*and yes. price tags. cool din :) hindi nagugusot :D sayang din kasi kapag tinatapon ang ganda ng designs. :3
Well..before i used to cut outs folders then customize it as my own personal bookmark. It's super cute.
Mostly I use those tag cards from clothing brands, or receipts, lrt cards, even money, haha. Sometimes when I can't find any, I use tissue.
