Okay, what have I gotten myself into.
I wanted to make a simple banner image for the blog. Just a few bookmarks; a sampling of my overall collection. I thought I’d start simply enough: just gather what I have into a few drawers to simplify choosing a sample set.
Several hours and 5 drawers later, I’ve gathered the bulk of the bookmarks. It occurs to me that there are more squirreled away in some drawers from recent trips, and I’ll need to move them in with the rest.
And, I made sure that these were just the bookmarks. I separated out all the other collectible do-dads and memorabilia.
The best part of all this was rediscovering my collection. I have a lot of beautiful, intersting, and memorable bookmarks. Many are reminders from trips I’ve taken, several are small works of art, some are antiques, a lot of them are bits of advertising and souvenirs from interesting movies or events, and most I can’t easily explain.
Now I can pick out a few to be photographed for the blog.
