  1. So beautiful, Pat! Your project interests me a lot: I also make bookmark for me and my family (soon I am posting them on my blog, too), but I never thought of laminating them... how do you do this? do you make them laminating by a stationery? Thank you, ciao!

  2. Thanks, Cristina xx

    I do go to a stationery shop with a few bookmarks and ask them to laminate them for me. It protects them and saves them from fingerprints and from smudging. Prolongs their life too :) xx

  13. Thanks Francesco.
    Feel free to try them yourself . They are 8inches by 2inches and once they are painted, get them laminated.
    If you know anyone who still reads books - they will love them :) xx

  14. I bet it is very hard to paint something only 2 inches wide!!!
    These are very pretty.

  15. It is a bit difficult, Tonya - I can't do all subjects - just a select few and very loose!
    Glad you like them xx
