Instructions to make a beaded bookmark with seed beads.

Tie a knot on one end of your ribbon. Trim the ribbon end close to the knot. Thread the beading needle and go through the ribbon knot to secure the end of the thread. String on as many large seed beads as you want the length to be. I used 21 large beads on mine. Now place 4 smaller seed beads and take your needle back through the larger beads. The small beads will form a loop at the end. Run your needle back through the ribbon knot. Repeat with another string of beads. You can add as many strings as you would like. When you have as many strings as you want secure the end of the thread in the knot. I also used bugle beads in my bookmark.
On the other end of your ribbon tie a knot about 2 inches from the end. Add a large regular bead and then make another knot to secure the bead. Trim the end of the ribbon and you now have a bookmark.
Supplies you will need for the regular bookmark
You can use string, nylon cord, embrodiery floss Beads of your choice
