Hello friends! Today I’m rounding up some easy bookmark ideas that you can make at home. DIY Bookmarks are a smaller canvas to explore and try out new art techniques. It’s also a great idea to use up any excess paint you might have squeezed out onto your paint palette and don’t want to waste it.
What kind of paper can I use to make bookmarks?
For all of these DIY bookmark ideas, you want to use paper that has a bit of weight. Think cardstock or any kind of heavier paper. A 140lb watercolor paper is great for making bookmarks that you paint art onto. A super heavy 350lb paper makes a sturdy bookmark that won’t bend easily. You can also print on watercolor paper and then color in your designs.
What size should My bookmarks be?
DIY Bookmarks often measure 2.25 by 7 inches. You can make a shorter bookmark of 2 by 6 inches instead if that works better.
