The production steps are as follows:

①Collect plant materials. Flowers, stems, leaves, fruits or seeds can be used as plant bookmark materials. Generally, herbs are the main materials and should not be too thick. For flowers, you can choose globeflower, lover's grass, baby's breath, zinnia, etc.; for stems and leaves, you can choose coleus, spider plant, clover, bougainvillea, etc.; for fruits or seeds, you can choose wheat, red amaranth, foxtail grass, etc. .

②Dry. Flatten the collected materials, clamp them with thick filter paper or other highly absorbent paper, and press them in a medium-thick book for one to three weeks until the plant water completely evaporates.

③Design. First draw a sketch, and reasonably match the flowers, stems, leaves or seeds of different types of plants. No matter the color or shape, it should be as perfect as possible.

④Paste. The flattened and dried plants are designed according to the sketch and pasted on the cardboard with glue. The color, pattern and texture of the cardboard must be properly matched. You can write famous quotes or blessings on the front and back of the cardboard as needed to give to your friends.

⑤Plastic sealing. If possible, you can go to a stationery store to buy plastic sealing film, clamp the prepared flower and plant bookmarks in the center, and seal them with a plastic sealing machine, so that they can be stored for a long time and are not easily damaged.

⑥Wear a ribbon. Use a hole punch to punch a small circular hole in the center of the upper end of the plastic-sealed bookmark, and thread a small ribbon through it. The color of the ribbon should be coordinated with the color of the flowers and plants.

In this way, a beautiful bookmark is ready.

When you open the book to read and appreciate, what comes to your eyes is not only the beauty of a small piece of petals and leaves, but also the affectionate imprint of the season and the selfless gift of nature
