How to Turn Memories into Photo Strip Bookmarks

How to Turn Memories into Photo Strip BookmarksWhy buy a bookmark when you can create one that’s completely yours?

Photo strip bookmarks let you bring in moments frozen in time with friends, family, travels, or even your pets.

They look like mini film reels, playful yet polished, and instantly make your book feel more personal.

Each time you slip it between chapters, you’re reminded of the joy behind the photos, making reading not just a pastime but a journey back into your own story.

Materials Needed

  • Glossy or matte photo paper (8.5” × 11” sheet)
  • Printer (inkjet or laser)
  • Photo editing software or app (to create 1.5” × 6” strips with 3-4 images)
  • Scissors or paper cutter
  • Laminating sheets or clear contact paper (optional)
  • Hole punch and ribbon (optional)

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Choose 3-4 favorite photos that tell a story together. Crop them into rectangles (approx. 1.5” × 1.5” each).

Step 2: Arrange them vertically in your editing software to form a photo strip about 6” long. You should leave a slim white border for a classic film strip look.

Step 3: Print onto photo paper at the highest quality setting. Let it dry fully before handling.

Step 4: Cut neatly with scissors or a paper cutter for sharp edges.

Step 5: Optional: Laminate or cover with contact paper to make it last longer. Punch a hole at the top and tie a ribbon for flair.

Tips:

You could even make themed sets such as summer trips, family gatherings, or even your pets so every book gets its own story companion.
