If I’m honest, I expected them to be pretty, but I didn’t realize how functional they would be. I love these fabric bookmarks, and since I often have many books going at one time, I am always searching for a book mark. But not any more, I’ve got them stacked all over.

I am working on developing a sketchbook habit. I have started two books. One Etchr brand, with heavy paper, that I am using for botanical sketches, and one lighter weight spiral bound Bee Paper brand, that I want to use for experimenting with decorative shapes and patterns. Consistency has been difficult, but I think I am just trying to figure out what kind of process works for me.
