Materials Needed For Bookmark

• 4 Craft sticks
• Yarn
• Tacky Glue
• Scissors
• Embellishments for decoration

How To Make A Weaved Bookmark

• Start by cutting one craft stick in half.
• Line up the other 3 craft sticks next to each other.
• Lay each half across the 3 sticks, one at the top and one at the bottom. Glue them in place. These will hold the 3 together.

**Note: Use a tacky glue or hot glue gun, regular school glue will not dry quick enough or hold as well.

• Once the weaving “loom”, which will be the bookmark, is dry cut a long piece of yarn and tie it onto one end of the loom.
• Start weaving the yarn in and over each craft stick. Over, under, over and then back.
• Repeat until the whole loom is covered with yarn.

• Loop the end around the middle craft stick and pull the tail piece through the loop so that it will create a knot when pulled tight.

• Cut 3 equal length pieces of yarn, tie them to the tail piece on the loom. Braid the 3 pieces.
• Finish by tying a knot at the end.
• Decorate the bookmark as desired, write name and date on the back!

The perfect DIY project for little kids to make mom! Moms don’t want expensive gifts, they want a little bit of relaxation on their day. So, why not create a small pamper basket for mom and include this beautiful bookmaker created by their child.
