When you get addicted to making these heart bookmarks as I have here are some ideas for what to do with the dozens you now have: You may have seen ubiquitous heart bookmark instructions on Pinterest or YouTube and I have two different folding methods to share with you. In fact if your kids have never done origami before, these bookmarks are a good way to start! Will these easy origami heart bookmarks change their minds? I doubt a paper craft will be the final catalyst but we can have fun making them! They are also so easy to make. I'm afraid they enjoy placing their books open while face down. But sadly, I have yet to convince my kids of their usefulness.
The only objects I avidly collect are bookmarks! I have an assortment of bookmarks I've acquired through purchase, promotional events as well as DIY bookmarks.
Oh sure, you can dog ear the pages, rely on your memory, or ( heaven forbid!) lay the book open while face down! A fun bookmark is not only useful, it can add a bit of whimsy to your reading time. A good bookmark is essential to a avid reader and these heart bookmarks will advertise your love of reading.
