Print these
"home-made" bookmarks for a special reading companion.
MATERIALS
paper, printer, scissors and glue
crayons or something else to color with (for b&w print
version)
OPTIONAL:
wool
clear contact paper
INSTRUCTIONS
Click on the link of your choice (below) to print the
template. Color as appropriate.
Cut the bookmark out (one big rectangle) and fold in half
(left to right) along the center line.
Glue so it stays folded together.
OPTIONAL: cover with clear contact paper so it lasts
longer (you could also put a piece of cardboard in the center before gluing for a sturdier
bookmark)
OPTIONAL: Poke a hole in the top of the bookmark and
tie a string/wool through as a tassel
To make a tassel:
wrap wool loosely around 4 fingers 10 to 20 times
tightly tie a long piece of wool around the bottom of the circle of
wool
Trim the top end of the loop
put the end of the long piece through the hole in the top of the
bookmark so the tassel dangles as much as you like
Tie the long piece on and trim the end

Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one
page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
