CREATE A CRAFT
Alot of people claim to be crafty, but my sister Rose is definately the queen of crafting. She will share a craft idea weekly, I hope you will try many of them and return often to see whats new!
*Magnetic Book Mark*
To answer your initial response, no, it doesn't hold the book to the dashboard so you can read while you're driving... (and
I DEFINITELY wouldn't advise it if it did!!) And no, it doesn't hold the recipe book to the front of the 'fridge--though
that would be handy, and very crafty, hmmmm...
In honor of March being reading month, here's a little something that you can
implement to suit yor need for a place marker in your current read:
Cut from card stock a 2" x 6" rectangle. Fold to form 3" x 2" halves. Place two, 1" self-adhesive magnetic strips face to face,
then peel and stick opposite each other on the inside of your bookmark. Next, decorate the
outside of the bookmark.
This is the fun part! Here are a few of my favorite options:
Rubber stamp and color with any image you like.
Quote an inspirational author or poet using a fancy calligraphy pen, then trim the edges with your fancy scissors!
Gel pens...need I say more?
Enjoy personalizing your bookmark. (Complete it with a hand-made by YOU and the date if you're
giving it as a gift.) Separate the magnets and attach over the page you're saving.
That's it!! 'Till next time, of course...Rose
