>but they're usually too fragile
this is what makes them perfect for books.
Imagine reading "Aspects of Nature - von Humboldt" and having this delicate flower to physically remind you of nature as you carefully move it in between the correct two pages.

>>	Anonymous Mon May 21 08:21:58 2018 No.11187335 >>11187324 Yeah, but they'd get ruined too quickly with use, no matter how delicately you handle them. I like having them old. I still have some from my childhood.

That sounds aesthetic and pure anon. I might adopt it.

For my bookmarks I typically use an old, incomplete set of Thoth tarot cards. I draw the card at random and lose it or add it back to the shrinking deck... whatever chance dictates and whatever I draw, I try to find those themes in the book and pay particular attention to them.
