How to make antique bookmarks?

Step 1: Cut the cardboard into squares, cut a circle in the middle of one of them, and stick double-sided tape on the back.

Step 2: Thin cloth dyed with plant leaves. If there is a pattern, you can draw a circle along the circular frame with a pencil, cut it about 5 mm away from the pencil circle and paste it directly.

Step 3: Determine the position of the dried flowers, cut the cloth according to the previous method, stick it well, fix the dried flowers with white glue, and set aside to dry.

Step 4: Find a thread, tie a knot at both ends, tear off the double-sided adhesive tape, string the rope, tighten it, stick it on the other half, and then knead it by hand.

Step 5: The circle dug out in front can just be cut into two corners. Stick double-sided adhesive on the back of two dimes, tear off one and put it in the middle of the line, stick the other and tie a knot at the bottom.

Step 6: Measure a centimeter from the corner and cut it off.
