BUTTON BOOKMARK

Hey everybody!!

recently like I already said i have been reading quite a lot!!

So wanted to make a new type of bookmark again !!
so I raided my craft closet

and found that  I had these small paperclips and lots of buttons !!

Hello again!!
This week I have been doing a lot of reading.So,as usual in the hostel i didn't have any bookmark.

That is why i thought of making some cute book marks.
I didn't have much crafting material except for my scissors and glue!!

That's why I thought why not recycle the paper from my old copy covers.

And then I made these cute and quick bookmarks
