How to Make Sloth Bookmarks with Free Pattern
Supplies
- Free Sloth Bookmark Pattern (comes in two different sizes)
- Colored craft papers
- Craft glue
- Pencil
- Sharpies
- Scissors
Directions
Step 1
Download, print and cut out the sloth bookmark patterns.
While you can use whatever colors of paper that you would like, we used the following:
- Head (Brown)
- Face (White)
- Eye-patches (Darker Brown)
- Body (Brown)
- Arms (Brown)
- Claws (White)
- Heart (Red)
Step 2
Glue the claws on the back side of the patterns for the arms and the feet on the body.
Step 3
Glue the eye patch cutouts on either side of the white face cutout, keeping the round ends of the eye patches facing inwards.
Step 4
Glue the white face pattern in the middle of the brown head cutout.
Step 5
Glue the head on top of the body pattern.
Step 6
Glue the heart cutout slightly underneath the claws on one of the arms.
Then glue the arms on either side of the body, with the claws facing inwards.
Depending on the placement of the arms, you may need to trim off excess paper on the sides of the body to make them even with the edge of the sloth body.
Step 7
Use Sharpies or markers to draw the eyes, nose, mouth and blush spots on the sloth bookmark face.
I also used a brown marker to go around the outer edges of the sloth body and arms.
