SilverLupe favorited Charming Ribbon Bookmark 02 Nov 17:03

Step 1
Measure out your ribbon, using a book(if you read a lot of hardbacks, pick the biggest one you have) as a guide for how long to cut it. Leave about an inch to an inch and a half extra.
-
Step 2
Put jump rings on each of your charms, or crystals. That's just sort of preparatory though.
-
Step 3
slide one end of your ribbon through a crimp bead, then through the jump ring on one of the charms, and back through the crimp bead. Then, smish the crimp bead with your jewelry pliers(*smishes*).
Repeat on the other end of the ribbon.If you make it exactly like me, you need to put a heavy bead(mine is silver) above the crystal charm, and below the crimp bead. It weights that end, so that it stays in the book better.
-
Step 4
Melt the ends of the ribbon(that are poking out from the smished crimp beads), with a lighter. DON'T burn it, just get the flame close to it, not touching.
