AMAZING Bookmarks!
First I have to say that I ordered this knowing it was shipping from India and would take some time to get tome in Texas...the delivery was expected at the end of February to the beginning of March. I was very delighted it was delivered to me in 2 WEEKS...that's AMAZING!<br /><br />Next, it was really nice that this seller took the time to personalize my order. My book was gift wrapped and had a Thank You card, along with a gift bookmark. This seller is not just on Amazon, but she is part of Handmade Amazon. This seller makes these products herself, which is different from regular Amazon sellers &#60;who sell other company's creations&#62;. I very much appreciate the time Prajakta took to make me feel special.<br /><br />The book of Bookmarks. All of the 50 bookmarks are beautiful! All of them are fairly simple. Simple meaning they are not so detailed it will take me a month to finish one. The paper quality is high and she's included a piece of paper between pages to prevent bleeding...if you use Gel or even Watercolor. Prajakta takes the time to add a page of Tips in the beginning....on Tools, Shading, what colors you want and where to look them up. There are even little blank blocks to try out your colors to see what they look like, or even if they might bleed.I've not seen this in any other adult coloring book I've purchased, and I have a ton! I love that each bookmark is separated by about a half of an inch, so when I cut them out, I'm not cutting on a line that goes between 2 bookmarks, which means I can leave a small border on each bookmark if I like.<br /><br />I can't wait to color my bookmarks! I enjoy coloring to relax. These bookmarks will make a nice gift for my friends and family who read. &#60;I will update with photos after I've colored a few!&#62; And yes!! a lot of my family & friends still read actual books! As a &#34;Handmade&#34; Artist myself, I appreciate it when people take the time to make something for me, and I know people love to get gifts that I make them &#60;I make jewelry, blow glass, and I crochet&#62;.<br /><br />I think these bookmarks are beautiful, were very well presented, and worth every penny. Yes, they are a bit more expensive then a lot of the coloring books out there, but you are getting 50....FIFTY bookmarks. If you had to go out and buy 50 bookmarks...you'll pay a lot more then this $20!!<br />I love these and highly recommend this seller! Thank You Prajakta!
