As a result of downsizing, we're still going through boxes and sorting the stuff to keep, donate, or discard. I found a handful of used Japanese stamps and beautiful chopstick bags in one of the boxes and a sheet of laminating film from another. It was a case I made something out of necessity. I was reading a book and I didn't own a bookmark (bookmarks magically disappear for some reason), and I needed something to replace a receipt I was using as a bookmark.
I don't remember where these chopstick bags came from---probably a restaurant or a hot spring resort in Japan. These are handmade with real dried flowers. I added chiyogami (an origami paper) on the back.
Used Japanese stamps also got a makeover. I had just enough laminating film to make 4 bookmarks.
These bookmarks will make reading books even more enjoyable. Happy reading!
