I can’t wait for you to learn how to make a corner bookmark. You’ll never read or give a book as a gift the same again! These are so simple and fun to make, you can personalize them a million ways too! Here are your step-by-step instructions, plus a free template on how to make your very own corner bookmark – happy crafting and reading!
- Download the free template to make your corner bookmark. (Link below)
- Trace your template onto desired cardboard, cardstock, scrapbook paper, felt, fabric, or whatever medium you choose to use for this bookmark. I will be using a thin cardboard cereal box, vintage hymnal pages and scrapbook paper.
- Cut out your corner bookmark.
- Use a paper scoring tool or just fold your cardboard where the template shows you, so you end up with a square.
- Paint or Mod-Podge some paper onto the back side of the middle of your pattern so that you have a two-sided square.
- Fold up your bookmark.
- Hot glue the two back pieces together.
- Trim any excess overlap to have a nice square.
- Decorate the front corner however you see fit. I used ripped hymnal pages and my FAVORITE letter stamps (linked HERE). You could paint, stencil, embroider, stamp, and decorate these in a million different ways! Please show me how you make yours!
