Total Time: 10 minutes

Yield: 1 bookmark

Supplies:

  • 10 in of embroidery floss each (3 colors)
  • 1 paperclip

Steps:

  1. Hold the three strands of embroidery floss together and fold them in half. Put the loop end through the top end of the paper clip. Pull the loose ends through the loop and pull tight. Separate the strands so that you have three groups.
  2. Paperclip bookmark with braides embroidery floss.
     
  3. Braid them together until you reach your desired length. Tie a knot in the end and trim off any excess floss.
  4. Completed yellow bookmark.
     
  5. Slip the paper clip bookmark onto the top of the page, where you left off reading. Allow the floss tassel to hang outside of the book.
  6. Clipped to the page of a book.
