DIY Bookmarks for Crafty Book Lovers

Hey, bookworms and crafters!

If you love getting creative and want to add a personal touch to your reading time, I’ve got the perfect project for you—DIY bookmarks! These fun and simple crafts are a great way to combine your love of books and creativity.

In this post, I’ll show you how to make your own bookmarks from scratch. Whether you’re a casual reader or a die-hard fan, handmade bookmarks are a lovely way to mark your place—and they make great gifts too!

Are you a fan of Carrero or Awakening? Let me know! I’d be happy to create a special video tutorial for shaker bookmarks themed around those books, complete with printable files so you can follow along and craft your own.

Need supplies?
I’ve got you covered! You can find everything you need in my Amazon supply list here:

Let me know in the comments if you’d like the printables or the Carrero/Awakening-specific video, and I’ll make it just for you!

Another Vlog

A Vlog for your enjoyment

Come Support my Vlogs

I am uploading a backlog of older vlogs to my channel as I move them off the newer one I had started but never promoted and would appreciate some follows. Working on finding my way of making videos is a process but I hope in time to give some valuable and entertaining content xx

Giant Elf Prize Draw

I am running a prize draw for my giant elf decoration. Hand knitted by me and my own design. If you want to knit one yourself, then I have the pattern available here on my Etsy.

https://lianaocf.etsy.com/listing/1623884954

This prize draw is a ticket entry, so you buy a ticket for one pound, and it’s placed in the box to be drawn at the end of the competition. You can buy multiple entries to be in with a larger chance of winning. Due to the size of the elf and Christmas post, this is only open to the UK. I will run a new draw in the new year with a smaller prize that can be won internationally.

To enter, click here for the PayPal window. It will collect a delivery address to be used if you win.

Good luck.

Come Join Me On Bluesky

If you are one of the lovelies who is abandoning X and wants somewhere to go that brings back the feel and look of Twitter retro, then come join them on Bluesky.

Apparently built by ex-twitter employees who were unfairly axed (so I have heard, but don’t quote me as truth), which is a plus for me.

Come follow me and say hello!!!

Well, howdy…. how easy is it to get some interaction on this app? If you see me, say hi, and where you're from.

Come join me on Youtube

I have decided to start vlogging again in the form of a weekly studio vlog. So pop over and see what I am doing on the arty and creative side of things.

Wish me luck. Cancer results tomorrow .

I apologize for my absence this past 2 weeks. I was given very invasive tests over a week ago for a lump in my right breast. I have been waiting with bated breath for the cancer results, which I will find out tomorrow morning.

I can only apologize for the lack of updates on the book and blog, but I have been keeping my head down and working on some DIY at home to ignore the stress this is causing me. Unfortunately when highly anxious my creativity dies and therefore I have been unable to write for 2 weeks.

I am hoping for a negative test tomorrow, but in the worst-case scenario, I know I can get through it. My best friend has just gone through a 2-year breast cancer struggle, so she has been a great comfort and inspiration in what to expect on every step of this journey.

I am very hopeful, though, that this is a false alarm and all will be back to normal after I recover from the last 2 weeks of pain, exhaustion, and extreme stress. xx
