Bookmarked!
I’m trying really hard to spend less time online and more time being a book worm. I love reading and have no problem closing my laptop when I have a good novel to dig my nose into. (And for the record, when I say “novel,” I really mean chick-lit.)

| Does anyone know what book this is? The irony is that it’s not a chick-lit book and it came out years ago, but it’s still one of my favorite reads. |
So the other day I was browsing my latest internet trend, also known as Pinterest, when I saw something I knew I’d have to make: an envelope bookmark.
I have a tendency to lose any type of bookmark I use, so spending money on one is out of the question. I usually just grab whatever receipt is near me or (*gasp*) dog-ear my page and be done with it, but I always feel a little bit bad doing that. Seeing as how I’m not very crafty, this seemed like a project I could accomplish, and the best part is that it’s free
This lovely bookmark can be all yours in just two easy steps:
That’s it. Easy peasy, right? I went a whole extra step and spruced this one up for you by writing on it.
But honestly? I made my first one by just tearing the corner off an envelope (no scissors necessary).
Oooo definitely love this!!
This is great! I use receipts too. The worst is when I have to return something and I remove the receipt. Then I'm screwed! I love this idea and Lord knows I have a boatload of junk mail lying around to do this!
I love this, especially since I just misplaced my actual bookmark (again). I can't dog ear pages… it makes my soul cry. Now I'm off to find an envelope! Thanks 🙂
love that!
I read all the freakin' time. Its just all for class and never for fun! I'm like you though, I usually use receipts because they're there and they're easy.
This is a super cute idea though!
So cute! You've inspired me to improve my bookmarks, which are usually random pieces of paper.
I read All. The. Time. And I have a bad habbit of foling the pages over so this is an awesome idea! Thanks for sharing!
Oh I love this!! I would have never thought of that…thanks for sharing!! 🙂
I've been using the same bookmark for about 7 or 8 years…BUT I love this idea and will totally try it! 🙂
That is SUPER cute!!! And a really good idea!
Love this idea. Thanks!
So pretty and easy!
I LOVE this!
Genius idea!
I LOVE this! I can never keep track of all my bookmarks and this is a perfect and easy way to do it. Thanks!!
I usually use business cards as bookmarks. 🙂
Awesome idea!!!! Thank you 🙂
What a great idea! 🙂
I'm doing this! Such a cute idea!
