Bookshare campaign | Bookplates

Lottie Storey June 20, 2018

On page 24 of July’s The Simple Things, we introduce our Bookshare campaign

 

How it works:

1 Choose a book to pass on.

2 Find a place you’d like to leave it.

3 Stick one of our book plates in the first page.

4 Write in your name, date and where you’re leaving it.

5 Leave it for someone else to enjoy.

6 Share socially: say where you left it and tag @simplethingsmag on Instagram.

 

DOWNLOAD OUR BOOKPLATES

 

You’ll be able to print them at home, A4 size, to cut and paste into your books.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
