Bookmark Inspirations

26/11/2019

0 Comments

 
Have you ever mentioned using bookmarks to someone and later they say that you inspired them to do so?  Gaby Dondlinger sent two examples.  
The first is a bookmark designed for the municipality of Perl in Germany after she talked to a woman who had a little free library and also published a story in a local magazine about Woboda 2019.  The reverse of the bookmark says ”You tell stories to the children to make them sleep – and to the adults to make them wake up” (Jorge Bucay).  What a nice quote and sentiment.  We assume she will also be distributing these bookmarks in her little free library in addition to city organizations.

Gaby was also inspired through her IFOB activities to add tiny bookmarks to the tiny books she makes and sells.  In these photos, you can see the display she uses to showcase the books on large letters.  Now they will also be promoting the use of bookmarks.
