Homemade Bookmark
Tonight I was packing an item I sold on Etsy and needed a freebie to throw in the box as a "thank you". I don't know about you, but I love getting little extras when I buy something. I had a pile of small rectangular cardboard I had been saving, which came off vintage seam binding. It's what they used to wrap the seam binding around. I kept them because I thought they would make the perfect book mark. I was right! I wanted to share with you my first attempt.
These were my supplies. Notice the green post-it note which has the note to "make bookmarks" on it. This note was attached to the little cardboard pile forever. I finally got around to it.
This is the backside. I first wrapped a vintage dictionary page around the cardboard for a backdrop.
Not much to it, but it turned out cute! I think this will be my new freebie for all my Etsy customers.
