Making the mark

hahaha, yeah, that’s right, it’ll make people guilty for not returning borrowed books!

@Czar: I got it for P750 in half a day, but my brother said it’s probably cheaper sa Recto

@Melo: Hmm, I should’ve had mine say “I solemnly swear on my life that I will return this book to Blooey or I will suffer the ugly consequences”

Bwahaha!

@Chloe – I kept running out of bookplates and labels and I wanted a uniform look, so I went for this

@Ihop- The diameter is around 2.5 x 2.5 in.
I went there with a printout, but it didn’t come out exactly like that. I used a different font and the stars were bigger, but the finished product changed because they can only use that all-caps font and they had to adjust the stars into dry-sealable patterns.

Best to have a simple design I guess.

@Ray-Ann – not sure, maybe it’ll be more expensive?

@Reg- haha I think kuripot lang talaga ako, imagining how many books that P750 would’ve bought. But after using it I realized it was a great investment

@Kathlyn, that’s a great idea too :) In college I took an elective on Chinese painting and was signing everything as Soon Mei Li. Haha now I don’t know how to write it anymore

@Kwesi, baka cheaper there in Koronadal?

@Tina- I have like four different kinds of stickers too, plus some stamps in my old books… Now I’ll never run out of labels, or ink. This one is for keeps, unless — gulp — I wear it out!

@Ella- I still do that too :)

@Mauie- Blooey Medal of Excellence? LOL…

@Ted – Hahaha at this rate I’ll be spending a small fortune on dry seals!

@Mauie- hehe, you’re right :D

@Cecille- Let us know ha! :)

@sTEDdy – hehe, magpagawa ka na rin!

Hi Kathlyn — in a rickety cart bordering on the Makati Central post office.

Hi Liana. I had it made at a stall near the entrance of the Makati Central Post Office. It was P750, I had it made in the morning and was able to get it in the afternoon.
