Projects

Fold a corner bookmark

One square of paper and a few folds make a bookmark that slips over the corner of a page.

Fold the square

Set a square of paper in front of you like a diamond. Fold the bottom point to the top point, then turn the triangle so the long folded edge is at the bottom.

Make the pocket

Bring each bottom corner up to the top, crease, and unfold. Fold the top layer of the upper point down to the middle of the bottom edge.

Tuck in the corners

Fold the two bottom corners up again and tuck their points into the pocket. Press the folds flat before slipping the bookmark over the corner of a page.
