DIY Stuffed Bookmarks


Hello! Today we're making DIY clear bookmarks with small decorations on the inside! You will need:

  • resealable plastic bag
  • scissors
  • parchment paper
  • iron
  • glitter, beads, or tiny pieces of paper
  • ribbon
  • toothpick
I forgot to take a photo of the materials, but you'll see them later in the pictures. Start off by cutting your plastic bag into 2 bookmark-sized rectangles.


Next, cut out a rectangle of parchment paper and fold it in half lengthwise. Sandwich the rectangles of plastic in between the paper. After that, iron three sides of the plastic together, leaving one of the short sides open.




Then, fill the bag with glitter, beads, paper, or whatever you want inside your bookmark.


Then seal the top of the bag with the parchment paper and iron. After that, use a toothpick to poke a small hole at the top of your bookmark.



After that, loop some ribbon through the hole and tie a knot at the end.


And you're done! This is how mine turned out:


This DIY was so easy to make. I love the versatility of this project, as you can put anything you want inside the plastic. I hope you try this one out!

Until next week,
