Rosy-cheeked Robin Bookband - Liberty Floral

These gorgeous bookbands feature a stitched fabric Robin, handmade in my favourite Linen,  and finished with a beautiful red sparkly breast. 

The saying goes that Robins appear when a lost loved one is nearby, and particularly at Christmas this is an incredibly comforting sentiment. 

My bookbands were made out of necessity, as I am someone who regularly thinks I can manage a few pages of my book before I fall asleep, and this more often than not ends up with my husband peeling my book off my face an hour later... I got tired of losing my page, so something had to be done! The band stretches perfectly around most books, so even if you're reading a big fat hardback it will keep your place for you. These are also perfect if you use a paper diary or planner.

I make lots of other Robin items - they are also available as brooches and tree decorations. You can also order this bookband design with a Liberty Floral fabric rather than the Glitter if you prefer.
