As I have said before, I LOVE books! However, the strange thing is that I am one of those people (assuming there are others out there!) that rarely read one cover to cover. I guess mainly because I like reference type books, cookbooks, and books about Christian wisdom, homeschooling and raising kids. I am always in and out of several books at a time.
After being in the Barnes & Noble lines a few times I decided I really liked those cute little packs of book markers. You know the kind, they are usually either a magnet of some sort or a clip. Any who, I really didn't want to spend $10 for 3 tiny clips so I came up with a super simple little idea.
This works especially well for those of you that scrapbook and have otherwise useless little pieces of ribbon laying around, like I did. Of course, cute ribbons make a cute book marks.
You simply tie a little knot around the end of a paper clip! And BAM! You have lots of little cutesy book markers for all of your unfinished books : )

Very cute idea. I have often used paperclips for bookmarks (color coded for different kids who find themselves in different places), but I love the ribbon idea.
Thanks for sharing!
