Description
These magnetic bookmarks come as a set of four, each one cut to the shape of a garden bird's head and shoulders in flat, bright colour. You get a robin with its orange breast against olive brown, a green woodpecker with a red cap, dark eye mask and green and yellow plumage, a blue tit in sky blue, lime and sunny yellow with its white face and navy eye stripe, and a bullfinch with a warm red breast beneath a dark cap. Each bookmark is 4.3cm long and 2.4cm wide, and only 0.1cm thick, so it sits flat without pushing a book out of shape.
Because each one folds over the edge of a page and grips both sides, it stays put where a loose slip of card might fall out. That makes the set handy for keeping your place in a paperback on the bus, a hardback by the bed, a recipe book in the kitchen or a notebook at your desk. We like having four, as you can mark several places at once: a chapter you are reading, a page to come back to and a couple of favourite passages, each with its own bird. They lie close to the page, so a book still closes neatly and slips into a bag.
The bookmarks are made from paper and magnet, which keeps them light and slim. As general good practice for paper, keep them dry and wipe them gently with a soft dry cloth if they pick up dust, and open them out to remove them rather than pulling them off the page. They make a cheerful little gift on their own, or tucked inside the front cover of a book you are giving, and a bright way to bring a touch of the garden indoors.

Frequently Asked
How big is each bookmark?
Each one is 4.3cm long, 2.4cm wide and only 0.1cm thick, so it sits slimly over the page edge without bulking out a book.
Which birds are in the set?
The set of four has a robin, a green woodpecker, a blue tit and a bullfinch, each printed in its own bright colours.
How does a magnetic bookmark stay in place?
Each bookmark folds over the edge of a page, and the magnet holds the two halves together on either side so it does not slip out.
What are the bookmarks made from?
They are made from paper and magnet, which keeps every bookmark light and thin enough to leave between the pages while a book is closed.
How should I look after them?
As general good practice for paper, keep them dry and dust them with a soft dry cloth, opening them out gently when you remove them.
Do they make a good gift?
Yes, the colourful set of four garden birds is small and light, so it tucks easily into a card or inside the cover of a book.
