How to make a 'dangly' bookmark! 

I'm full on obsessed with these and all of my daily books and diaries now have like 4-5 each making these amazing jingling decorations spilling out of all of them. I should add I'm using them in research books so these require more than one bookmark. In the past I'd use post it's or post cards, but now I type my notes and mark the page with these!!!

Love the idea of the loop knot on the top!!!!! And I use wire to make my dangles. Never thought of using just the cord Duh!!!! Sometimes the obvious is not the obvious lol. Thanks for sharing!!!! Loved this tutorial.

Great video! Good to see you back on the RU-vid 😁 Now I will probably go spend $100 so I can make a $12 bookmark 🙈😄

I can’t wait to try this myself! I already have all the stuff just laying around my craft drawers!! Thank you!!

😂😂😂 "roll it off like a booger not that I would know" hilarious!! ❤

Thanks for sharing your beaded bookmarks Ali. Love the idea you shared how JH taught you to leave a loop so you don't have to use the elastics on a tn. That really is brilliant. Hope to make some this afternoon! Your bookmark turned out awesome.

You are really good at picking beautiful beads, charms, etc. Good eye!☺Thanks for sharing!

This is beautiful! I’m making these to go in goodie bags for a womens retreat next weekend

Hi Ali, beautiful bookmarks and I will definitely be making some of these with my homemade beads. FYI from a veterinary technician, it would behoove you to make sure your cordage is kept away from your cat because it is actually deadly for them if swallowed! If your lucky, the swallowed threads/cords will pass on through, but very often it gets caught and the intestines will "telescope" (or intususcept) on themselves and they die a very painful death! Unfortunately this is something I've seen more than once on dogs and especially cats who swallow needles and or threads, etc. So, everyone reading this Please share this info. with fellow crafters/sewers and feel free to discuss with your vet! Anyway, TFS such a cute project ;)!

Love these!! They are so pretty. You are so talented 💕

I love seeing the hand stamped charms I made you in this video. I made them for you years ago. Im gonna have to make some bookmarks with my hand stamped charms.

love love love your creativity!

Thanks, Ali!! This video was great and helpful. It's so easy to do this and you made it that way. I enjoyed this video!!

Adorable and the color is perfect thanks for sharing!

If you put the point of your scissors in the loop of the knot, you can slide the knot up and down the string. When you get the knot where you want it, pull out the scissors and tighten the string. I hope that is a bit clearer than mud! Love the charms!

So gorgeous!!! Thank you for sharing! ❤️

I was searching for charm bookmarks and your video popped up! Thanks so much, I will be making them for our tweens in Sunday school tomorrow! God bless you!!

If you were to put a fitted piece of fun foam (from the dollar store) in the lid it would keep your charms in the slots better!

Love your personality! Super entertaining tutorial

Thank you! I've always wanted to try this and your tutorial looks super easy.😍

Wayyyy cute! Something else I need... friends that are crafty to teach me!

Love your videos! I learn and I laugh! Perfect!!!!!

Thanks for sharing this. I"m inspired to go shop for beads!

Hahahah--my cats did the same thing with hemp! hahahaha And I'm exactly like you--all or nothing. Great video! FYI----clear nail polish is also excellent to use to help thread beads onto hemp :)

I like your chit chat videos. It's like you're hanging out in the room with me. :)

You are such a breath of fresh air!!! You crack me up!!

I enjoyed your video! Very pretty bookmark

Look so pretty I love it!

Lovely! I take that top loop on the bookmark and put it under one of the elastics before I attach my top charm - just so I don't loose my bookmark accidentally - I figure that loop under the elastic won't be as bad as when I hang a charm there ;)

i jst love watching ur vids sooo much...im obsessed!😍

Absolutely beautiful ❤

I actually laughed out loud when you talked about the bugger thing!!!!!

Hey!! I just absolutely love your videos!! Another brilliant video!! Your style is so groovy!! Happy Crafting and God Bless

you taught us this process so well! thank you

Great idea with the tacky glue!

I've just found you Ali and I think you're just brilliant. 👍🏻💕

Thank you for showing us how to do this.😊 I have been wondering how those were made for a while. I think they are gorgeous! I recognize some of the beads from Walmart 😁. They are just so pretty. But the bead collection is my daughter's sooo... maybe I better ask her first ☺️💗! Oh and I love the idea of the loop at the top for a charm, it definitely would make them easier to put on👏🏻.

LOVE IT!

Super cute. Thanks for the tutorial

Love your tutorial. Gonna try this tonight!! tfs

If some don't like the knots, then they can use a crimp bead cover.

You're always so funny in your videos xD

Thanks for the tutorial. I’m making plastic bookmarks painted with alcohol ink and I want to dangle some charms on them. I’m not sure how to attach them. This did help. 😊

I luv it. U did great

"Brilliant, brilliant, BRILLIANT!" LOL

I have that same little dish, fellow A name owner. ;D And I just LOVE your tutorials because you might be long-winded but you're very thorough. :D

I like your bracelets your wearing! did you make them?

brilliant ❣

Awesome!!

Pretty!

Love making these! Can you do a tutorial on the charms you attach to the top?

You are so funny. Love your post .

Very urban. I like it. Thanks for sharing.

Now I want to make a bookmark. Great tutorial! By the way where did you find the brass top tabs?

The booger comment...😂😂😂 we were all once kids before!

Where did you get that box?

where is your planner from

The top n hat glue style is to keep it on its head so it is always ready to glue...

TFS. I LEARNED SOMETHING NEW. GOD BLESS YOU

Thank you for sharing your darling self! Quick question, the boho charms in the etsy shop you added in the description - those aren't yours are they??

Ali, you can use ur tweezers to help get ur knot closer to ur beads. O, I love ur book bead marker.

Where did you get your book? Its leather? I’d it a day planner or diary? Thanks!

do you have the link to cord that you use

Great Idea 👍👍👍👍👍

Don;t feel bad, I use to clean the church too. It builds character and we had fun.

Brilliant! hhaahha s2

Ali! You have the most beautiful beads! Where do you get yours!?

where do you get those charms? nice bookmarks too!😀

You are far too harsh on yourself. Your tutorial is Great, the bookmark looks beautiful....this is a craft project....things don't need to be 100% perfect. You just cleaned the church....it shows the person that you are. May God continue bless you. Thanks for sharing.

A crimp bead instead of the knots on the ends may work

Can you tell us the name of the Jennifer Harvey video you refer to in the video at tme marker 38/39, I've looked but unable to find it. Hope you can help? TIA!

You can put a piece of felt in there to keep things in place...

Tfs, off to Wal-Mart I go !!

Great tutorial! Where do you find your beads?

Im the same way, all or nothing. Why do it half way right?

Please do u have a tutorial on the actually dangle charm u hang off the book mark ? Tia x

you make me lol!

Hey Ali I know you made this video awhile ago but I was hoping you would help a girl out and give me your secret on how you decorated your leather journal? did you do it yourself? I've been searching and searching to find what inks and paints would work on my leather traveler's journal for a mixed media girl like ourselves ?? (I need to use something from my stash because I can't afford to spend money on special leather paints for one project) Do you have any ideas??

your crazy funny, a good crazy funny. 😉

Wasn’t confusing at all, well to me it wasn’t. Again, thank you.

same i do things for nothing

You can always cut things off, you can not always add things on.

That was fun ❤️

Just found you. Like a booger 🤣🤣🤣 AnaMaree

Your cat can die from swallowing string and it gets wrapped around their intestines. You really should put all string or thread away where the cats can’t get it for the life of your cats.

U talk so much 🙄

Lol Okay Eeew grose talking about boogers??? grose

Tutorial starts at 4:05. Sooo much gabbing beforehand.. No focus in this girl at all... 🙄

why do you confuse the issue by talking about everything but the task in hand stop the chatter please

If you can't focus you shouldn't do videos.
