Happy Halloween Bookmarks

Corner Bookmarks
We don't celebrate Halloween, but for the few kids that come around we give them something. For the last few years we have given out glow-in-the-dark bracelets which the kids love. Several have asked if we're giving them out again this year, and yes we are :) We have quite a few, but we needed something other than candy to give out if we run out. (Candy in the house is bad for me and actually for the rest of the family too.) So I thought about bookmarks and looked for some to print out. I found a bunch of corner bookmarks that are super cute on Pintrest, but they were pieced, not printed. Thinking that that wold be easy enough, I made a pattern (it looks like a fox), found my googly eyes, and proceeded to piece some. I made 25 which should cover what the bracelets don't. As an added bonus, I can give the extra's to tutees who have done a superior job on something. My husband and kids even wanted one, so they should be popular.

Have a great day!
