Plant Bookmarks

Time:60min + drying time

Difficulty:Medium

Do you like collecting flowers and leaves on outdoor adventures with your friends and family? Transform those little treasures into a bookmark with this fun craft!

Here’s what you need:

Dried flowers and leaves
Cardstock from an empty cereal box
Scissors
Glue
Packing tape or contact paper (you could use a laminator if you have one!)

Here’s how you make it:

Step 1:

Take a look around your yard or a nearby field for things like flowers or brightly coloured leaves.

Step 2:

Once you’ve gathered everything, put them between the pages of a thick book and leave them to dry for about 3 or 4 days.

Step 3:

Cut the cardstock into the size and shape you’d like for your bookmark. Use your pressed plants to jazz it up!

Step 4:

Once you have all your decorations in position, cover the bookmark with your contact paper, packing tape, or laminator. Cut off any extra plastic and go pick out a good book!

What kind of flowers and leaves will you use? Let us know in the comments below!
