🧶Bienvenido al mundo del DIY conmigo,un placer saludarles ☺️✨🎨. | 🧶Welcome to the world of DIY with me, a pleasure to greet you ☺️✨🎨.

Good evening, friends! I hope you are all doing well, as I am. I wanted to show you a cute craft project I made this afternoon. It's a lovely bookmark or book prop, and this time I made one featuring an animal that I'm very fond of—butterflies! 🦋 I always enjoy reading my books, but I often find myself needing something to mark the page, especially when I close the book, because I don't like to fold the pages. I sometimes think it's a shame that I don't use my creative skills to make one myself. So, to avoid losing my place, I came up with this beautiful bookmark, which is very easy to make, by the way!

To make this lovely bookmark, I used recycled materials, especially leftover coffee grounds, which we've used many times before to "paint" the recycled paper we'll be working with. I like this technique for coloring the paper because it gives it a unique, vintage look. You can also use this technique to decorate other things, like the pages of your notebooks. If you'd like to learn how to make this bookmark for your books, this tutorial will be very helpful. I hope you enjoy the result as much as I did! 🦋✨

Pasos a seguir: | Steps to follow:

Paso 01

Step 01

The first step is to color the sheet of paper with coffee and a little water. Then, let it dry for about 3 hours; I left mine to dry all afternoon yesterday. Once it's dry, use a ruler to mark a rectangle measuring 15 cm long by 8 cm wide. Mark the rectangle with a pencil and then cut it out. Next, take the rectangle and fold it in half lengthwise. Then, fold the bottom corners upwards, forming a triangle. Open the right-hand corner to proceed to the next step.

Paso 02

Step 02

Once I open the right side flap, I will fold it inwards. I will do the same with the left side flap, folding both flaps inwards. This will result in a triangle shape, just like before.

Paso 03

Step 03

Once we have the piece shaped like this, we will fold the top edge inwards, or towards the front, to form the butterfly wings. We do this with the left side so that both wings are symmetrical and slightly open in the center. Don't forget to fold and press the creases to keep them from unravelling. This is how our butterfly is finished.

Paso 04

Step 04

Using a black acrylic marker, I drew the lines along the edges of the butterfly's wings. I added three lines on the upper part of each wing, and the same on the lower part. I carefully drew the lines to make sure they were straight, as I wanted to do it as neatly as possible, since these lines are what make the butterfly really stand out. Once I finished drawing the lines, this little butterfly was ready to mark any page in my books.

And here's the finished piece! 🦋 This beautiful butterfly looks so lovely on the page. I really liked the color it took on with the coffee stain. The darker the coffee you use, the richer the color and the more intense the stain, of course, but without using up too much coffee! 🤭😌 I hope you all like how it turned out. I'd love to hear your thoughts and any ideas you might have for using this coffee stain technique.
