    They are really cute, and would be great for little ones if you had a name on the ribbon, then put a little gift in the bucket.

    I have put these personalised bookmarks on the bookmarks thread but thought some of you might like to make something like this for xmas.

    To make them you save each individual letter photo from flickr (see my blog, Sat 11 Sep for link) to your computer and insert them into a word processing or graphic program. Resize each letter to make the name the same size. Print out and laminate. Cut out and then hole punch the bookmark. Finally add ribbon.
