Learn how a magnetic bookmark set holds your page securely without damaging the paper, and get simple steps to use and care for your My Friend Fire bookmarks.
Quick answer
A magnetic bookmark set holds your page by sandwiching the paper between two magnets, so it stays put without slipping or creasing the page. Use the steps below to place, adjust, and store your My Friend Fire magnetic bookmarks for long-lasting use.
Why a magnetic bookmark beats a flat page marker
A magnetic bookmark grips the page from both sides, so it won't slide out when you toss the book in a bag or set it down. That makes it a better choice for readers who carry their current book around or journal on the go.
The trade-off is thickness: two magnets add bulk, so the bookmark can leave a slight crease if you close the book tightly. Using the bookmark as a page marker rather than a permanent clip helps keep the spine and pages in good shape.
How to use a magnetic bookmark set
- Position the bookmark on your page: Open your book to the page you want to mark and place one magnet on the front of the page near the edge, with the other magnet on the back. Align them so they attract through the paper. Common mistake: placing them too close to the spine, which can strain the binding. Check that the magnets are centered on the page edge before letting go.
- Adjust the grip for thin or thick pages: For thin paper, use a lighter touch and position the magnets closer to the outer edge to avoid creasing. For thicker pages or journal covers, slide the magnets slightly apart so they grip without pinching. If the bookmark slides, move the magnets a little farther apart for a firmer hold.
- Store and care for the set: Keep the magnetic bookmark set away from credit cards, pacemakers, and other magnetic media. When not in use, store the bookmarks flat or clipped together so the magnets stay aligned and the art stays clean. Check the magnets before each use to make sure the backing is secure and the art is not peeling.
