This 2″ x 6″ handmade bookmark features an original photograph of dew-covered purple crocuses, printed on fabric, and accented with light purple seed beads that spell out the word love in uncontracted (Grade 1) braille. The word “love” in lavender-colored seed beads highlights the sun-kissed crocuses captured in their gentle and natural setting, and the texture of the beads invokes the gleam of the dew drops clinging to the flowers’ petals. The back of the bookmark is finished with a soft gray fabric covered with a random pattern of shimmery yet understated silver dots that echo the braille dots forming the word on the front of the bookmark. The edges of the bookmark are finished in silver thread using a decorative stitch, and a silver grommet anchors a white ribbon trimmed in silver at the top of the bookmark. This bookmark is a unique work of art, combining original photography, braille, and a message of love. It is the perfect gift for any bookmark collector, any book lover / bookworm, or anyone who appreciates unique and functional art.

Original handmade braille gifts and handcrafted braille art by Beadtography. Please be aware that our Braille Art uses uncontracted (Grade 1) braille and that the beading is done by hand, so it will not be perfectly aligned or of absolutely uniform size, due to the variable nature of the beads and the realities of handcrafting. Similarly, each bookmark may differ very slightly from others of the same pattern, or from the specific bookmark shown in the images above.
