2015 DIY Bookmark

***update: find the 2017 version here***

Sorry for my long absence. This little guy has kept me busy.

There has not been much time for crafting lately in the hezzahvife house, but I did manage to sketch up this year's bookmark. With a baby in the house I don't expect to get a lot of reading done. Maybe only a book a month unless you count ones with pictures :)
Here's where you can download the 2015 bookmark. And like always, print it off, cut it out, glue it to some pretty paper and fill the spines with the titles you read.

Have you read anything good lately? I'm currently reading Call the Midwife the memoir of Jennifer Worth. I loved watching the television version on pbs and am enjoying the book. For those of you with little ones here are some of our favorite picture books:

2013 DIY Bookmark

***update: find the 2017 version here***

Did you fill up your 2012 bookmark? I've slacked off a little with my reading the past couple months so didn't quite reach my goal. But I did fill up one side and reprinted another one for the back. This year I've made two sides to the bookmark for all you avid readers. You can download the 2013 reading list bookmark here. Just print, cut along the pale grey lines and glue to some pretty scrapbook paper.

These are my current bookmarks -

a scrap of paper

an old receipt

a paper towel (most likely used)

a coupon from the valpak

pathetic, huh?

So I printed off a couple pics from the internet, got out the scrapbook supplies and created my own.

Meet my new bookmarks - 

The first has an image from a vintage sewing pattern. Next is an old library poster from the 60's with some eyelash yarn fringe.

I thought it would be cool to keep track of the books I've read this year. So I drew a stack of books where I can write in the titles as I read them.

Want your own 2012 reading list bookmark? Just print image found here, cut along the grey lines, glue to pretty paper and start filling in your own titles.

Check out the books I've read lately at goodreads on my sidebar, and feel free to comment on what you're reading. I'm always looking for recommendations.

ENJOY
