Barbados

Cloudy day today here. Looks like it will rain ... and I  find this bookmark from Barbados, with these sunny photographs and paradisiacal beaches... and sun... sun... sun...  **big sigh**

Bulgaria

We start the week with this handmade cross stitch bookmark from Bulgaria ♥. 

Andorra

This  bookmark is from Andorra, from the National Library sited in Casa Bauró (Bauró House), an ancestral house. This bookmark is about "Ex-Libris Casa Bauró", an annual publication produced by this library, where you can see everything published in Andorra throughout the whole year.

It is a simple bookmark but it was designed with a great care and a very good taste. The paper quality is awesome. I like it very much ♥.

India

This handmade bookmark is from India. It is an elegant and smart way to preserve something so short-lived like these little flowers. It is delicately made, very beautiful indeed ♥. 

Kenya

Giraffes are not beautiful? Indeed. This handmade painted bookmark is from Kenya and it is not only marvellous made but is capable to show us the majesty and elegance of this big animal. Look the sparkles on the eyes :)

It is one of the most special bookmark in my collection ♥ .

Bahrain

The Hand of Fatima is a beautiful symbol in many ways. Not only the beauty of the different representations but its meaning: the Hand of Fatima is a protective symbol that brings us luck, health and good fortune. Sometimes the hand has an eye that protects us against the devil eye. I love this very pretty amulet-bookmark very much ♥ .

I have to thank Sri, a very pleasant person who lives in Bahrain, for his help to find a bookmark from this country. It is always so nice to meet people so kind and so helpful. It is one of the great things of projects like this one :). Wonderful world!  

Lithuania

This bookmark was a unexpected gift from other bookmark collector, Liudmila, time ago. It is a touristic bookmark from Kaunas, the second largest city in Lithuania and it shows us a part of the beautiful castle in this city ♥. 

The book which was my model is "Purest pleasure. A book of garden gossip" by HLV Fletcher.
