Make a bookmark using leftover ribbon
I have no idea where I got this ribbon. It's a pretty, midnight blue, sheer wire ribbon. I had only a foot of it. I suppose I could have made a bow for a very small package, I doubt that that would have happened, though. If I had to wrap a very small present with this ribbon, I probably would have forgotten that I had the ribbon, where I put it, it wouldn't have been long enough, etc. etc. You know how it goes. So, I made a bookmark.
Tip: to save time use felt snowflakes with sticky backs.
What you need
- 10" wide (1.5") ribbon
- 4 small snowflakes
- 2 large snowflakes
- Matching thread
- 1 silver tassel
What to do
- Use needle and thread or sewing machine to edge one end of ribbon to prevent fraying.
- Apply snowflakes on both sides of ribbon, aligning them evenly.
- Miter the other end of the ribbon by making one 45 degree angle on one side and then the other. Stitch into place.
- Sew on tassel.
