Unicorn bookmark

Here’s an origami idea that combines practicality with cuteness.
It’s meant to be used tucked into a book, and when you insert it into a closed book, the design looks as if it’s peeking out from inside—very eye-catching.
The folding process is relatively simple: you shape it so the neck becomes long as you go.
Adding eyes and a mouth to the face gives it expression, and the overall vibe can change dramatically depending on how you draw them.
Color choice also affects the impression—soft hues create a calm look, while bright colors make it pop.
Because you can enjoy it in everyday use, it’s not just something you fold and forget; it’s an idea that comes alive in daily life.
[Craft Band] Bookmark

This bookmark is made from craft band and features a cute ribbon-like look with wider ends, plus an appealing three-dimensional feel.
To make the ribbon piece, you create three loops from craft band and secure them at the center; gently bending them gives the final dimensional effect.
Then wrap a long piece of craft band around the center of the ribbon, fix it with glue, and add small decorative parts to finish.
Because it’s simple, you can try all kinds of variations—like combining different craft band colors and choosing different embellishments.
In conclusion
Bookmarks and page markers you can make from everyday materials are wonderful items that make reading even more enjoyable. Why not handcraft a one-of-a-kind piece using your favorite materials? Charming handmade accessories also make perfect gifts. May your reading time become even more enriching.
