{2of2} I am sorry if this is overkill. But I've had, and loved this book for over twenty years. I've read, and re-read so many of the poems. And left special bookmarks in my favorite pages. Many of the bookmarks are pressed roses from my grandmother's garden, with whom I was very close. The book is very old, and worn, and well loved. Just wanted to share it with my Litsy friends. Thanks for indulging me. 💗 #bookmarks #riotgrams #oldbooklove

Dragon I really like the idea of pressed flowers as book marks. I'm going to try it 👍 8y

GypsyKat @Dragon The retained their scent for several years, but it's gone now. They do become very fragile, so if I were to do it again, I think I would press them between sheets of wax paper or something, to preserve them a little better. (edited) 8y
