Kindle

It's Handmade Monday again, Number 74 already! I don't know why the weeks are going so fast; it's a bit scary.

I find it funny (though I shouldn't really) that one of my favourite things to make is bookmarks yet, this past 6 months or so, the new books I have treated myself to have been on the Kindle. I guess it doesn't make good business sense at all and I doubt Alan Sugar will be worrying any time soon but I tend to make things that take my fancy. Perhaps I should do more research, have a look what is 'in' before I pick up my craft tools but I am ruled by my heart rather than my head... maybe I need to change.
Talking about the Kindle.. I have just read the Fifty Shades trilogy to see what all the fuss was about... good grief it was a bit rude! I kept blushing when I was reading it on the train! Very addictive though hehe.

Here are my new makes for the week.

  3. The bookmarks are lovely. And i think there will always be people who prefer ' proper' books to kindles, even tho the latter are so much more convenient!

  5. Love the bookmarks, and they do make a lovely gift. I do love my Kindle but books are still around, aren't they? Haven't read fifty shades yet, but they keep hanging on at the top of the bestsellers lists so maybe I should.

  6. I think we all suffer from the heart ruling our heads at times - something pops into our minds that we think will look good and sell and off we go. Your bracelet is so lovely - such gorgeous colours. Love the bookmarks too. Hope you have a good week.
