Instructions:
- To begin, cut a 12" length of celery green grosgrain ribbon for your bookmark.
-
Use a pair of chain nose pliers to crimp a 3/8" ribbon crimp onto one end of the ribbon. Repeat on the other end of the ribbon.
-
Thread a 4mm crystal clear Czech fire polish round bead, a rhodium plated classic bead aligner, a black Murano style glass lampwork bead with white dots, another bead aligner, and another fire polish bead onto a 2", 22 gauge silver plated head pin.
-
Create a wrapped wire loop after the last fire polish bead.
-
Repeat steps 3 and 4.
-
Use a 4mm, 21 gauge silver plated jump ring to hang one beaded piece from one of the ribbon crimps. Repeat with the other beaded piece on the other end of the ribbon.
-
Enjoy your book!
