Grimoire Trinkets
When turning many pages
Of a book that takes up space
And reading for what seems ages
You need to keep your place.
Adorn your spell books with a hand-stitched bookmark! Each has a different witchy or spooky motif. I’m most partial to the beehive bookmark, as bees and witches have long held a connection to one another. I think these bookmarks would make beautiful gifts for the booklover in your life or be a great trinket to keep your place in one of your own special volumes.
Each bookmark is intended to be stitched individually, but for the purpose of this book, the pattern shows them side by side. If you wish to stitch more than one at the same time, be sure to leave about an inch (2.5 cm) or so between them so you can cut them apart. If you’re concerned about the edges fraying, try using a sewing machine or seam sealant to close them off.
