Wallpaper sample bookmarks

These beautiful little bookmarks are simply a snap to make! I love how quick and easy they are. (Not to mention how cheap!) I got these pretty samples from Anthropologie. You can request free samples here.

Supplies necessary

Wallpaper swatches
Glue stick
Scissors
Hole punch
Ribbon

Step 1
These swatches come glued to a thick paper a few inches larger than the sample paper. Gently take one side of the paper and pull it back to the center.
Tip: The glue will soften and peel very easily if its moist. To moisten carefully hold the paper over steaming water until it feels pliable and the two papers come apart easily. BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO LET THE STEAM BURN YOU!

Step 2
Trim off the extra paper from around the pretty paper. Cut the thick paper exactly down the center. Measure it, or just guess to get it right.

Step 3 Fold the pretty paper around the thick paper in the center.

Step 4
Glue the wallpaper to the thick center piece.

Step 5
Punch a whole in the top center and add your ribbon.
Tip: To finish ribbon ends carefully hold the ends next to a candle flame to melt them.

And your done! Beautiful aren't they?!
