Description:

Feeling crafty? The last swap had lots of interest so I thought I would try again.

For this swap, you will upcycle or recycle everyday junk mail envelopes with an acetate window into a cute bookmarker for your partner. Please embellish the marker with your choice of creative ideas (book pages, stickers, markers, collage, stenciling, magazine cut-outs, etc...) Make it something you would want to keep for yourself, lol!!! Check your partner profile for likes or favorite colors....

Here is an excellent tutorial video by Natasha / Treasure Books as inspiration. Bookmakers start at the 4:54 mark. This link

There are other fun videos out there also. Please recommend all other videos in the comments below- the more inspiration the better!

Swap: one (1) partner, one (1) bookmarker made from a recycled junk mail envelope w/acetate window. Please add a little note to share something of your day or how you made the bookmarker

This craft shouldn't be bulky and stay within the normal cost for a regular international letter.

Happy Reading, Happy Crafting, Happy Swapping.
