I have dyslexia and it only makes itself known when I read. I find it so hard to keep my place and using the bookmark or my hand is too fussy! So I made this :)...and it's pretty. It could also be good for children or people with sight problems. This was inspired by PlaidCrafter's 'Hiding Square'.

Description

I have dyslexia and it only makes itself known when I read. I find it so hard to keep my place and using the bookmark or my hand is too fussy! So I made this :)...and it's pretty. It could also be good for children or people with sight problems. This was inspired by PlaidCrafter's 'Hiding Square'.

Instructions

  1. Small 15528

    Cut out a peice of cardboard and a peice of paper or bag a little bigger then the cardboard. Cut a gap in the card, place on top of the paper/plastic and draw an X in the gap.

  2. Small 15530

    Cut the X into sections so peices like this > remain. Place the card on top of the inside of the paper/plastic and glue down like in the picture.

  3. Small 15531

    Glue down all the sides, folding the last two sides like this helps keep the front neat. I only glued down on the back of this easy reader which makes the front look neater, however in the main picture the glue underneath the plastic looks kinda funky.
