Who this list is for
This DIY felt bookmark craft supply list is for children making durable bookmarks during library week or a classroom reading event. Precut felt bookmark strips make the project more workable for younger children.
How to use this list
Set out a precut felt bookmark strip, wax paper sheet, cardstock drying card, fine-tip washable marker, and child-safe scissors for each child. Use fabric glue to attach felt shapes, self-adhesive foam shapes, or alphabet stickers. Add a hole with a hole punch, then thread yarn using a large-hole plastic needle if a tassel or stitched detail is planned.
Common mistakes
Do not apply fabric glue directly on an unprotected table. Wax paper sheets keep glue from sticking to the work surface, and cardstock drying cards make bookmarks easier to move. Avoid adding too many thick foam pieces near the top; a bookmark should still sit flat inside a book. Younger children should use the precut strips rather than trying to cut matching long pieces.
What is on this list
The list includes 60 assorted felt sheets, 30 precut felt bookmark strips, 15 bottles of fabric glue, 300 self-adhesive foam shapes, and 10 sheets of alphabet stickers. It also calls for two rolls of yarn, 30 large-hole plastic needles, three hole punches, 15 pairs of child-safe scissors, 30 washable markers, 30 wax paper sheets, and 30 cardstock drying cards. Cross off what you already own.
When you are done
Write names on the cardstock drying cards and leave bookmarks flat until the fabric glue has set. Return unused felt, foam shapes, and stickers to supply bins. Once dry, the bookmarks are ready for classroom reading time or library week displays.
