Simple Craft: Bookmarks


Nathan and I made paper snowflakes the other day. We had strips of paper left and I tried to think of a way we could make some art out of them. I came up with bookmarks.

I cut them into bookmark-like shapes and then I had him color them. On the backside, I wrote a special message for the people we are going to give them to. We then put the paper between two sheets of contact paper. I used a hole punch for a place for the tassel, which we made from yarn.

These didn't take very long to make and Nathan had a blast working on the craft. Next time, I'd probably use white poster board instead of paper so the bookmark is thicker. But they still turned out pretty good.

A little fun time together and a small gift for his Nana and librarian!!
