I'm putting this on my blog to see if anyone who reads it is willing to help me.
I'm working with a few teachers who are looking to reward their 9th and 10th grade struggling readers who are being successful. They have money to purchase a book for each student, but I thought it'd be a nice touch if they could also give each student a handmade bookmark.
I'm looking to collect 100 handmade bookmarks by the end of May. I'll need a mix of ones for girls and boys. Whatever size, colors, or stamps you want to use are great! You could include the word READ, a quote about reading, congratulations, or no words at all. Since some people have asked, the school colors are red, white, and blue. (You don't have to use those colors, but you can if you want.)
If you do make any bookmarks, please email (or post a comment here) for my mailing address.
I'll even have a random drawing for blog candy from the people who send bookmarks. Feel free to share this with any fellow crafters who also may be willing to help. I know the students will really feel special when they hear someone made something just for them. Thanks in advance for your help.
