<\/a><\/p>\nTonight’s htgawcrafting project is Shaker Bookmarks made from Target’s Paper Chain Kit. I saw these during my regular trip through the TDS and thought, “Oooh what cute bookmarks.” Was I surprised when I saw the packet was a Paper Chain Kit of cut paper strips and not bookmarks. So I thought why not turn them into bookmarks? They’re the perfect size, super pretty and a great gift for any bookworm. Plus there are 27 pieces so you can get a loooot of gifts out of this packet. \u00a0Let’s get started!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nCut your photo sleeve to measure 1.5″x 8.25″. Your final bookmark\u00a0will measure 1.25″ x 8.25″, but you’re giving yourself a little wiggle room to use the FUSE Tool.\u00a0Here’s a\u00a0little tip: Take advantage of the existing sealed sides of the photo sleeve so you only have to cut and seal 2 sides.<\/p>\n
