As
mentioned in my summer bucket list, I have done quite a
lot of stuff. In this post, I'm going to share some of the Do-It-Yourself
Bookmarks I made. As much as I love reading, I love making bookmarks. It's a
different matter that I don't need them as I finish reading good books in a day
or two. But, it's a fun activity. I enjoyed making these a lot more than I had
imagined. All of these are just paper made. Nothing fancy yet nothing ordinary.
I believe that when you make things yourself, they are always special.
These
are the simple ones I made for the first time. I did not put much effort as it
was just the beginning. I used blue, red and white papers paired with some
glitter, markers and ribbons.
In these ones, the technique remains the same but the paper is
much better. After all, what's better than hearts?
The next ones I made were just something I hadn't planned. I
imagined that the effect of colourful hearts on black would give a nice look.
Seven different colours looked really nice. You can make such kinds of
bookmarks when you have to gift them to someone. The set looks better than a
single.
Now, the last type is the ones which everyone loved. I saw them on
Pinterest and that was when I got really interested. These are corner
bookmarks. You can attach them on the corner end of your page. There is a lot
of variety in these. You can make minions, pokemons, devils and actually
anything and it will look amazing. The hearts are another type which is really
simple to make. These kinds hold really well and I wonder why anyone doesn't sell
such bookmarks!
So I made a total of
21 bookmarks. I spent great amount of quality time making these. Now, I find myself gazing at the bookmark rather than the book. And lastly, I forgot to make one that says, "Go away. I'm reading". How do you make bookmarks? Do share! :)
