DIY Bookmark Bijoux

By Andrea Singarella

In a matter of minutes you can make these pretty bejeweled bookmarks.

You’ll need:

• Ribbon
• Ribbon clamps
• Flat-nose jewelry pliers
• Jewelry jump ring
• Charms, trinkets, or vintage earrings 

Instructions:

1. Cut ribbon to the desired length.
2. Squeeze ribbon clamps of the same width as your ribbon to both ends using flat-nose jewelry pliers.
3. Attach a jump ring and a charm, trinket, or vintage earring to the loop on each clamp. 

And you’re done. Enjoy!

Look what I made last night.

(In before “you destroyed a book for a ROBOT!” hardcover hipsters- I did not cannibalize a rare edition of Alice[’s Adventures] in Wonderland; in fact, its the 2008 Borders Classics edition cover and its one of the two copies I got for holiday that year. Now the copy of “Tomorrow and Tomorrow” I gutted for the inside panels is a bit more rare because its a shite play. I only read it to deal with my guilt before cutting it up for this project and gawd was it awful.)
