Corner Page Bookmark

Tired of using sticky notes or random bits of paper as bookmarks? How's this for a change?

This corner page bookmark is fun and very easy to make. I "Stumbled Upon" the idea and added my own style to it.

Here is all you need to know to make this bookmark. 

Draw a perfect square. The size doesn't matter, make it how ever big or small you want. I made two different size bookmarks (8cm and 5cm). As you can see in the photo, you need to draw two more squares of the same size. Then draw a straight line down the middle angle of the squares and cut off the shaded areas.

Cut out the figure and fold the two flaps inward and glue them together. Then decorate the bookmark however you want.

Here are my little creations. I used thin construction paper for the base and added colored tissue paper on top for a really unique look. 

I find the moustache ones so cute!

Here is my favorite one.

So as you can see, each bookmark is different and that's why they make perfect gifts!

Before you go, here is a fun fact on bookmarks: one of the earliest bookmarks for printed books was used in the 16th century by Queen Elizabeth I.
