Learn to create a: Separator of Pages for Books

in #art6 years ago (edited)
Greetings to all my dear family of Steemit. In this opportunity, I want to show you how you can create a book separator in a simple and economical way, with recycling materials.


Using the page separator:

  • It allows us not to damage the pages of books or notes.
  • It serves as a guide to know the page number where we leave our reading.
  • Place the divider in the center of the page, when your eyes are tired, and close the book without worries. Because the separator will allow you to continue with your reading, whenever you want ...

If you like to read or you know someone who loves books, I invite you to learn, how to make a page separator for books.


After an invitation to take a cup of coffee to my sister's house, I was surprised by how many books she has and how passionate it is to read, I asked her for a borrowed book and, when I opened it, she had several of the corners of the pages of his folded book, my sister was my inspiration to create this beautiful separator.

My sister loves dark coffee and sweeten it with sugar sachets, there's the idea. He wanted his separator to be an original and very beautiful motif.


So let's create ...

Next the materials and the step by step.

Materials:

  • Pieces of foamy in color: fuchsia, dark brown, light brown and white.
  • Cardboard in my case use a shoe box lid
  • Pencil.
  • Scissors.
  • Fuchsia unicolor fabric ribbon, 3 centimeters wide x 30 centimeters long.
  • Silicone
  • Take out Bocado.

Step by Step

Step 1

To make the template, on a sheet of cardboard or on a piece of paper, draw a cup of coffee and a bag of sugar. Then, with the help of the scissors cut out.

Step 2

Take the template and place it on the foamy material, mark it with the pencil around the templates and then cut with the scissors to obtain the pieces.

Step 3

Take a piece of white foam and take out several small circles.

Stage 4

We will begin to stick our pieces so that the separator begins to take shape.

Take the piece of sugar in the brown color and in the center place some hot silicone and stick the tip of the fuchsia ribbon, then on the top stick the piece of the white envelope with hot silicone.

Take the other end of the ribbon in fuchsia and paste the following pieces, first the piece of coffee glace and then the fuchsia. To have a more beautiful touch, stick the white circles on the coffee cup and a small heart on the corner of the sugar with the hot silicon.

Step 5

With the help of a black-tipped marker, put the name on the envelope ** Sugar **. And to make our coffee look even more provocative, cut a light brown crescent in eva gum and stick it in the dark brown circle.
