I love bookmarks. And printing your own can be fun.
Shel Silverstein has a beautiful black-and-white bookmark that you can download and print. It has a whimsical drawing of a child hanging upside down from a branch, along with Silverstein’s poem “Oops.” Lovely! And the perfect format for a bookmark. He also has some other printables with his poems, but if you don’t like violence or the suggestion of violence, you might want to skip Cuttin’ Kate.
IvysGraphics has some free color printable bookmarks. Most of them aren’t my style, but I like the dragonfly one. Maybe you’ll find one that appeals to you.
If you like cute dogs and cats, then these pet portrait bookmarks will probably appeal to you.
If you’re a Harry Potter fan, there are a lot of Harry Potter printable bookmarks here.
If you like Winne the Pooh, these printable bookmarks will probably appeal to you.
RandomHouse UK has a lot of printables for their children’s books. They have one great color bookmark, based on a children’s book: Smog the City Dog bookmark

I love bookmarks. I’ve said it before, here, but there’s something that feels good about having a bookmark that is visually pleasing, that says something meaningful or that speaks to you, or that has a character from a book you love, marking your place in a book. And free bookmarks? When all you have to do is print them from the comfort of your home? Send them to me. 
If you, too, like bookmarks, why not check out some of these free printable bookmarks:
These bookmarks by ActivityVillage look like they’re done in watercolor, with bright yellow stars on blue backgrounds, a large heart, a spiral, a crescent moon, all with inspiring quotes. They look lovely.
If you’re into Harry Potter, you might enjoy these printable bookmarks from the movie, or these other Harry Potter bookmarks.
If you like Dr. Seuss (I love Dr. Seuss) or Cat in the Hat, you’ll enjoy this bookmark or this Oh the Places You’ll Go. You can also find a lot more Dr. Seuss printables here, which, while they aren’t bookmarks, are book related.
(If you really love Dr. Seuss, you might want to check out these Dr. Seuss bookmarks that you can buy (and that look like high-quality graphics at a reasonable price–$1.49 each.) I don’t get anything from this; I just thought it was a find, since I love bookmarks.)
For nature lovers or people who like photos of cute animals, there are these animal (and insect) photo bookmarks, with many to choose from, including butterfly, dolphin, rabbit, turtle, frog, and more, all from billybear4kids. The photos are lovely, though I wish each said something else besides the name of the animal.
If you like Arthur books or Garfield, then you’ll like these bookmarks.
This friendship bookmark shows a rose and a quote about a friend. While not entirely my taste, I can see that they look pretty nice. They’re found here.
Whew! That should keep you busy for a while. Hope you found a bookmark you like.
