The Blossom Page Magnetic Bookmarks

What these bookmarks are

The Blossom Page Magnetic Bookmarks are small flower shaped page markers that fold over the edge of a page and hold it with a magnet. Each bookmark is made of magnetic material and paper. The magnet runs through the shape, so the two sides meet and stay closed on the page.

They suit readers who want a marker that stays put. A plain paper slip can slide out when a book rides in a bag. A magnetic marker clips on and stays where you left it. The flower shape gives you something easy to spot when the book is closed.

Size and pack count

Every bookmark in the set is the same size. The pack holds 12 bookmarks.

The 0.8 x 2.4 in (2 x 6 cm) size fits standard trade paperbacks, hardcovers and most mass market paperbacks. It sits close to the page edge, so it does not stick out far.

Colors in the set

The 12 bookmarks come in five colors: pink, peach, mint, blue and lavender. The mix gives you a range of soft tones to sort by book, by shelf or by mood. You can keep one color for a current read and another for a book you pick up later. With 12 in the pack, there are enough to spread across a shelf, a desk or a reading bag.

How to use them

Open the bookmark at the fold. Slide the page edge between the two sides. Let the magnet close. The marker holds the page without a crease or a dog ear.

To move it, lift the top side away from the page and slide it off. The magnet releases with a light pull. Then clip it to the new page.

A few ways readers use the set:

• Mark your place in a novel, a planner or a cookbook.
• Flag a page you want to return to, such as a recipe or a map.
• Keep a few in a pencil case or a tote for a book you carry.
• Pair the set with a book stand or a book holder on a reading table.
• Tuck a few into a gift for a reader.

They also work as page markers in journals, notebooks and study guides. The clip holds a single page or a small group of pages.

Care and storage

Keep the bookmarks dry. Wipe them with a soft dry cloth if they pick up dust. Do not soak them in water, since the paper layer can warp.

Store the set flat in a small tin, a drawer or a pouch. Keep them away from heat and direct sun for long periods, which can dull the colors over time. The magnet can pick up small metal items, so keep the set apart from paper clips and pins.

If a bookmark loses its grip, check that both sides are clean and flat. A speck of grit between the magnet faces can weaken the hold. Wipe both faces and try again.
