Q&A for How to Make a Bookmark

Yes, you can! This is actually super easy and fun! Grab yourself a laminating sheet, which usually comes in two layers. Separate it and sprinkle some glitter or any other flat decoration that you like inside. Make sure everything is spread out nicely, then join the sheet again. Now, carefully feed it through the laminating machine. Here’s a quick tip when using laminating machines: start on the lowest heat setting first. Laminating machines will vary, so you’ll want to see how it works before cranking up the temperature. If the film doesn’t seal well on the first pass, you can run it through again at a higher setting. Once it’s laminated, grab a paper cutter to trim the edges. You can even be more fancy by punching a hole at the top, threading a ribbon or tassel through, and there you’ve got yourself a custom bookmark!
