✨ Steps
1. Attach the dried flower
Gently glue the dried flower onto the plant-fiber paper.
This paper has a natural, soft texture that matches botanical elements beautifully.
2. Add the lamination film
Cover both sides with self-lamination film to keep the flower clean and protected.
Smooth out any small air bubbles using a scraper.
3. Trim it into the shape you like
You can cut it into a long rectangle or any bookmark shape you prefer.
This step is surprisingly relaxing.
4. Punch a hole & tie a string
Use a hole punch, then add a simple string or ribbon.
This little detail makes it feel more complete.
5. Place it in your favorite book
It’s a small handmade moment that stays quietly beside your reading time.

🌸 Tips
• Plant-fiber paper is highly recommended for this project.
Its natural texture makes the final bookmark look soft and effortless.
• If you don’t have lamination film, a clear book cover material also works.
• You can use pressed flowers, leaves, petals, or even tiny botanicals from your garden.
