These bookmarkers were really quick to make and fun, too! I used 1 1/8" covered buttons and these huge paper clips that I got at old navy. It's not a new concept though, I've seen something similar on etsy or some other blog, but I can't find where at the moment (feel free to leave a message in the comments if you know of any sources). Just 'thread' the button onto the giant paper clip, slide it to the top and hot glue in place!
I also found this cute Dr. Seuss quote and made a little dr. seuss-ish card for the bookmarkers to slide onto.
If you're interested, you can download my PDF here and make your own! It's set up to print two to a page. Enjoy! Make sure to wish all teachers in your life a big thank you, I think we all know how hard they really do work.

Cute idea! Link to .pdf doesn't appear to be working, though. Thanks for sharing!

Molto belle Anna! Deliziose! Ciao pia
I love those! Very cute!
What a cool idea! So creative!
I'm one semester away from completing my Education degree and from personal experience gifts from students and parents are very much appreciated. I got my first "teacher" gift three years ago and it still means so much to me. Thanks for reminding everyone to appreciate their teachers :)
Those are awesome. LOVE them! And now I want to make them, too.
great idea Anna!

Hi Anna!
I made up four of these very quickly this morning before my son's last day of school -- they turned out so cute! I found some fabric in my stash with teeny-tiny little scissors, glue, etc. It was perfect!
Thanks for the idea and for the printable!
Care.
Hi Anna!
I want to forward this to all of the parents in my class so that I'll get some! Or maybe I'll think to do it with my students for a holiday. Who couldn't use a bookmark?
I've stalked your blog a couple of times and am so amazed (and jealous! I want to be crafty!). It looks like the girls are tons of fun; tell Dan "hello" for me.
Take care,
Erin Whitcraft
