How to Make a Cool Bookmark
What you need:
1 permanent marker
Thick water colour paper
Assorted coloured inks
Scissors
A Ruler
Laminating facilities
A thin paintbrush
How to Make it:1. Cut the cardboard to approximately 17 cms in length and 4 1/2 cms in width.
2. Write your name with the permanent marker so the letters touch the top and bottom of the cardboard.
3. Open a bottle of ink, take the paint brush and gently dab the ink onto the paper. Use a variety of colours.
4. Paint a deferent pattern on the other side using the colours ie the side without your name on it.
5. Laminate it .
NB For added effect some of our class plaited some coloured wool and made a tassel for the bookmark. We attached the plaits by making a hole in one end with a hole punch and then tying the wool through the hole.
