Supplies

  • Craft wire – 18 gauge
  • Craft pliers – cutting, looping and flat nose.

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1:

Hold wire from an end without cutting it from the bundle. Use flat-nose pliers to bend 1.5 cm of the wire to 25-35 degrees, as shown in the picture of this step. This will be the midrib of the leaf.20141212 141203 - How to Make Tulip Bookmarks with Wire (Easy 6 Steps)
