Cloth Bookmarks

When I was teaching, I was always on the lookout for a cute, but easy project for the kids to make for Mothers Day. I definitely would do this project if I had a class this year...

1. Brush rubber cement onto a piece of cardstock in an area larger than the size your finished bookmark will be. Stick on a scrap of fabric, smoothing out any wrinkles.

2. Flip the cardstock over and repeat for the back side of the bookmark.

3. Mark the edges of your bookmark with a ruler and pencil, then cut it out using a sharp scissors.

4. Punch a hole at the top with an eighth-inch punch, and tie on a bit of thin ribbon.
