Okay so I had just stubbled upon Shelfari through blog hoping and even though I have a goodreads account I found their widget for blogs to be too cool. So I wanted one!! Even better! Shelfari allows me to identify not only books I own but which ones are being borrowed! This inspired me to want to organize my library, which made me revisit wanting bookplates for my books. Well I told myself I wasn't in any mood to reinvent the wheel and to just google "printable bookplates" and pick some to use. That didn't happen, well it did and I found some great bookplates but then I got to thinking.. if I keep them simple I could make my own bookplates according to subjects or genre's of my collection! So I give you the bookplate for my "Crazy Cat Lady" section.
In the event that I get lazy.. yeah (stop laughing)... so when I start getting less enthusiastic about this project, I figured it would be a great idea to include a few links to some of the bookplate sites that I liked.
If I ever want to pay for my bookplates.. er I mean professionally done plates;
The title of the page should say it all. Bookplate Bonanza is a list of sites that has printable bookplates.
This site I really like, it is a collection of printable bookplates, arranged by size.
Below I have included my "Own" book shelf. That's right I own these books! And no, I'm not going to loan them out to just anybody, I have to organize and give them their bookplates but now you know why I totally had to make a Shelfari account.
