BOOKMARK
Cut a piece of yarn to the length of the book you will be using it on plus 6 inches (15
cm). For our textbooks, this was 18 inches (46); for paperbacks, 12 inches (30 cm) is
plenty!
Thread the yarn through the beading needle. Because it can be flattened, it is easier to
use than many yarns. At the end, tie the yarn securely in a knot so the beads cannot come off. You can put
a dab of glue on it to make sure the knot does not come out. Tie another knot above the beads so they don't slide
around. You can also secure the yarn by using the type of crimp fittings that are used in making beaded necklaces to hold the yarn. |

I first saw these kind of bookmarks in a bookstore. They were called "Book Thongs" (cute, huh?)
Anyway, that year, I made them for all of my family, friends and co-workers.
I placed pretty beads on the top and the bottom...leaving just the string itself that gets closed in the book. That way, the binding of the book doesn't get bent.!!!
