🫖 Bookish Friends 🫖 is a bookmark membership hosted on my Ko-fi. When you join, you will receive one bookmark each month for a discounted shop rate, free shipping and if you stick around, get a one time use shop-wide discount every 4 months. It’s honestly the perfect gift for any bookish tea-lover in your life—or keep them all for yourself—I won’t judge.

Here’s a taste of what my Bookish Friends have received so far this year. I hope to see you too!

Have you heard? April bookmark membership is a go! And I’m getting artsy with my photos 🤭

This is somewhere between your first to third time seeing this bookmark as part of my monthly tea bag bookmark membership. This specific bookmark has been doing well in my shop so I wanted to share it with you as part of my membership this month. Save a little compared to my shop price and get a bookmark? The bookish tea-lover says yes!

Shop talk. I have Ko-fi and Etsy for different reasons, so hopefully this helps explain why I have both!

If you’re new here: Hi, I’m Brenda! I make everything you see here and use 100% cotton where possible. Most of my fabric is sourced from a small woman-owned business. Make yourself at home—R&F home 💚
