It took about 12 hours to make, so would never be something I could sell! Imagine paying around £30 for a bookmark LOL

I really hope she likes it though. I have attached a business card so she should realise that it is hand made and appreciate the effort more than the actual gift.

Very nice bookmark.  I think the teacher will love it all the more since it’s homemade.

That is so beautiful, I love the different textures of the beads within the colour range, very subtle.

Thanks for all the positve responses again. It was a lot of work, but she seemed really touched by it. She gave my son a lovely thank you note and told me that she had really enjoyed having him in her class that year! So, it was worth the effort!
