Description

I can't remember where I saw, this, but I got tired of using cracker-wrappers and old homework for bookmarks and decided to get creative. This is what I came up with!

    Gather the materials you'll need. A pair of scissors An envelope A pencil Something to decorate

  2. Small 001 1236633219

    Mark off the corner of the envelope. This helps to ensure a straight cut.

  3. Small 002 1236633277

    Cut on the line you drew.

    Decorate! I like to slip my new bookmark over the other corner of the envelope. It doesn't wrinkle too easily that way and it keeps the Sharpies from leaking to the other side. Ideas for how to decorate: -Your favorite quote from a book -Your favorite quote in general -A list of things to read -Use a pre-used envelope and use the stamp side. Happy Reading!
