How to make Your Own Personalised Bookmarks Out Of Laminated Paper

Hey there! This week I am back with another #RDIY which is on how to make your onw personalised bookmarks. Yay! I am super excited cuz before I posted this online I gave a bunch of these bookmarks I made to my friends, teachers and family and they loved it. It sort of became a trend thing in my class and once again I am super proud of my recycling diys.<3 Well actually you guys were the ones to motivate me and kept me going. Thanks.

All my bookmark making tools and materials.

Well first of all, I got all the laminated coloured paper from my friends. They were doing some decor thing and was about to throw out all the excess but I asked for them and trust me they looked at me as if I was mad. But who cares I mean the bookmarks turned out very nice and yeah they loved it.<3

So on with the steps on how to do this:

• First, mark down the part of the laminated paper the part that you want. I decided to draw out rectangle boxes. Just do this step first, you can alternate the shape later on. 

Oh and use permanent marker.

• Then, just cut out all of the pieces according to the lines you just draw.

• If your rectangles are planning on doing the classic rectangle bookmark and your rectangle isn't that perfect now is the time to draw some more lines with a permanent marker with a thinner point to prefect the shape.

Then, take out your puncher and punch a hole at the middle top part of each bookmark.

• For the longer bookmark, I decided to gently fold  them into two halves, then cut them into this pieces rather than one.

• After that , just repeat the process and punch a hole at the center top of each bookmark.

• Then, cut a long piece of laminated strip from the excess. You can also use some rope or thread or ribbon if you like.

• Pass one end of the the strip through the hole and then the other.

• Make a loop.

• Then , pass the ends through the loop and pull gently.

Wallah your cute bookmark is ready to be customised and it looks super cute.

I cut both the "ribbon" into an equal length.

Part two: customising the bookmark

• Just Google for motivational quotes and find one that you find inspiring.

• After that, just take out all of your permanent markers and starting writing and drawing the quotes down.
• I love this quote below:

• Here is also another cute one. Just take your puncher and punch several holes on your bookmark . This is super unique plus customisable. Just be you!

Here are some samples:

My BFF has the part that says FRI FOR and you can guess that it become Friends Forever when put together.  You can also make your own twin or bff or sister bookmarks if you like.

Super tiny but cute.

I love this yellow.

Hearts anyone?

Weird shapes rule!

All the quotes. OMG They are so cute!
