Sticky notes, paper clips and receipts make adequate page savers, but there's something to be said for the utterly adorable appearance of the Sprout Bookmark, even though its basic performance is not necessarily groundbreaking.
Its slim stem slides carefully against a leaf of your novel, appearing to playfully grow between the bound pages like imaginative story inside. While it may not flag your place any better than a one dollar bill, it makes its presence better known, with a pair of lush green leaves enticing you to pick up the hardcover once more.
Created by Lufdesign from a lime-colored platinum silicone, each Sprout Bookmark comes in a pack of two. If you become totally taken with the endearing look of these sweet little seedlings, you'll most likely find other uses for them as well.
