DIY geometric felt bookmarks

Remember the boxes I made with stiffened felt from the craft store? I found it was easy to cut the stuff by hand with an X-acto knife, so I used the leftover scraps to make bookmarks with geometric cutouts. Kinda like the laser-cut items that are really popular right now, but without the laser.

    Very cool. I love the colors and I love how you left the exact, exact border everywhere. Hard for us with wobbly hands!

    Yep, it's "Typography for Lawyers." I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to get a handle on using typography well.

    Chic! I've never seen/heard of stiffened felt, but it seems like it has a lot of crafting potential!

    Nossa que lindo! Estou procurando um marcador para eu fazer e este eu achei bem legal! Mas diga uma coisinha ele fica molinho mesmo ou tem que passar algum produto nele para ficar mais durinho? E parabéns ficou lindo de verdade!
