Keep your place in style with DIY corner bookmarks! Add a personal touch using customized stamps for a creative and practical craft.
Hey everyone! Today, I have a fun little tutorial for you. It’s super easy, too—because you know how much I love easy!
I’ve been trying to read more lately, so I made these DIY corner bookmarks to keep my place.
These handmade bookmarks are way more fun than regular bookmarks!
Instructions
Cut out a square piece of a sheet of paper. I used some pretty scrapbook paper.
I cut mine 6", but I wanted a pretty big one, so if you want something smaller, just cut a smaller square.
Fold it corner to corner on each side, making an X.
Using scissors, follow the fold lines to remove one of the triangles. It doesn't matter which one.
Fold the two flaps in on each other and adhere one flap to the other.
Make sure to leave a little pocket to slide over the book page.
Embellish
The bookmark is assembled, so it is time to decorate!
I used decorative scissors to make it look like the edges were torn.
Then, I added some lace ribbon and my monogram stamp.
Whether you use these corner bookmarks plain or embellished, they are a fun way to hold your spot in your current favorite book.
They slide over that right corner so perfectly!
More Bookmark Ideas
Can you have too many bookmarks? I don't think so!
Here are some ideas to make your next bookmark.

Of course, the exam is stressful, but sometimes students start to panic ahead of time and voice their fears about writing an essay. Or you can find on cheappaperwriting everything you need to do a good job

Hello! I'm in my third year of studies and have recently received my first dissertation assignment. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, especially with regards to adhering to APA and MLA styles. If you have any resources that could provide some guidance, I would be incredibly thankful for your help.
