How can I put back the bar that held my go-to site icons?

Question

I am referring to the bar that has the site address, and Google box. In the past, I placed a lot of icons on that bar, that I got from my bank, utility sites for bills, mail, facebook, etc. It was a great convenience. The bar had a plus sign, to add more icons. A window would appear, that allowed you to choose an icon and enter the site address. A lot of the sites had their own icons, that would automatically appear, in the window. Now, I tried to follow the directions to add icons to the bar, but it looks like there are very few available, and hardly any that I use. I'm hoping that there is a way that can be used to add back the bar's abilities to place very useful icons, that were so easy to use. I'm sure many people are upset also. It's a mystery how anyone could think that the new features would be better than the old, at least for this one bar's usefulness. Thanks, in advance, for your help.

# Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.
# Click the Show / Hide Toolbars button near the bottom and make sure "Bookmarks Toolbar" is checked.
# Make sure the "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" element is on the Bookmarks Toolbar (the bar below the navigation toolbar, which is the part with the address bar and the search box).
# Click the Exit Customize button near the bottom right when done.
# When you want to bookmark the current page, drag the icon on the left side of the address bar (usually a globe or a padlock) onto the Bookmarks Toolbar.
