- Curly Ribbon (made from grosgrain ribbon… instructions below)
- Jumbo Metallic Paperclips
- Buttons
- 1/2″ Craft Glue Dots
Directions for Making Curly Ribbon Bookmarks:
1. Start by making the “curly ribbon”. Click here for step by step directions. We used a 1/4″ size Wood Dowel & 3/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon for these paperclip bookmarks.
2. Once ribbon has cooled, cut Curly Ribbon into 5″ strips.
3. Fold curly ribbon in half and feed loop through the top of a Jumbo Metallic Paperclip. Next, thread the 2 loose ends through the loop and pull to secure.
4. Attach Button to a 1/2″ Craft Glue Dot and then press directly onto the ribbon at the top of the paperclip. This will also help secure the ribbon and also finish off the bookmark nicely. If you don’t have Glue Dots, you can use a Glue Gun or E6000 Adhesive. We used Glue Dots so there would be no drying time. Plus they work great and there is no mess…
5. That’s it! An easy weekend craft that you can make in minutes. These Curly Ribbon Bookmarks make great gifts to give to all the readers in your life too!
