DIY Bookmarks a Fun Actuvity for Kids and Adults

Today I have a fun craft for everyone that you can do with things from around the house. This is a very very simple DIY/craft you can do when you feel creative

We are making our own bookmarks. In order to make the bookmarks you can either repurpose old things from around the house or use any craft supplies you have.


For this craft you’ll need:

1. A piece of cardboard or an old notebook with hard covers.

2. Glue 

3. Scissors 

4. Ruler or something to draw straight lines with.

5. Pencil 

6. Stickers or newspaper scraps to decorate with.

7. A big book 


Now let’s get into the steps:

1. Gather the things you will need.

2. Measure how long you want your bookmarks, I made two  sizes one 15x5 cm and one 14x4 cm, those are great sizes but honestly you can kind of eyeball it and make it however long you want it.


3. If you are making a cardboard one you probably only need one piece depending on the thickness, if you are using notebook covers I suggest using two both so you can have the covers’ print on each side but also so you can make the bookmark thicker. So cut your pieces.

4. Glue the two pieces together (if you are using 2 pieces).

5. Decorate! Here is where you get creative you can use stickers or pictures from newspapers and magazines for a more scrappy look.

6. Put them in a big book for a day or two, this is an optional step you don’t have to do this but I suggest it so everything sticks better.   


Here you go your bookmark is ready now you have everything you need to start reading that book you have been postponing.

Thank you for tuning in I hope I inspired you even a little bit to get creative. See ya next time!!!

Enjoy! 1) Snow ball fight  A great way to have some fun in the snow you can also get a great workout from it. Just remember to not go too hard on people and end up hurting them. 2) Build a snowman Such a creative activity to build a snowman with your friends and family or even by yourself. 3) Make an angel on the snow  I don’t really know how to explain this one but basically just lay in the snow and spread across your arms and legs.

January Favorites

Hey guys today I am sharing with you my monthly favorites for the month of January. Hope I give you some inspiration to try something new. Morning routine Guys I know I have been teasing you for this one and for the night routine but they are coming. The only reason I haven’t made a post about them yet is because I haven’t really settled on what fits me yet, once I find it I will post them.  Having a morning routine for the past month has been very nice and made my day way better. I am more productive both because I wake up earlier but also because I am more motivated when first thing in the morning I get to cross off items on my daily to-do list. Night routine  This one has also helped me a lot to wind down before going to sleep also having time off my phone before I sleep is very nice and I have incorporated a lot of great habits in this one too so you know I am improving myself through my night routine. Homemade scrubs And the teasing continues once I perfect my recipe I will also p
