10 DIY Bookmarks to Save Your Place with Style

10 ideas for easy DIY bookmarks that look great too.


Reading has always been my favorite pastime. And now, as a mom with two preschoolers, I cherish my alone time with a good book even more. But it seems like I can never find a bookmark when I need one. I usually end up resorting to any old scrap of paper or (gasp!) folding the corner of the page. But I've decided that if I am going to have a pile of books on my nightstand that I need real bookmarks to go with them. So I've found some cute DIY bookmarks that are actually as easy as they are adorable. These projects are totally doable for any skill level and your books will look great too.

Love to Read? Join my Book Club!


I love being part of a book club, but as a busy mom, making it to meetings wasn't always happening. That's why I teamed up with two fellow bloggers (and awesome moms) to create Moms Book Nook - a monthly online moms book club. 

We meet in a private Facebook group and chat about a new book every month. We announce the book selection on the first Monday of the month and discuss on the last Monday of the month at 9:00pm Eastern. It's everything that you love about book club - great books, fun conversations - but you can join in your PJs after the kids are in bed (and have a glass of wine without having to drive home).

We have a wonderful group of ladies who love books and we would love for you to join us! Check us out here.

And be sure to follow us on Instagram too.
