Gather some metal book corners and make some embellishments from sentimental ephemera. You can make ornaments, large book charms, book plates, souvenir place cards, photo gifts or just hanging decor. If gifting a journal pop one in a pocket on a journal book cover.  Use photos, cards, letters, drawings, fabric, lace or any other sentimental item. Reduce your sentimental ephemera to smaller keepsakes you can store in a box and display on special occasions. 

Made in two sizes, 2″x2″ and 1 3/4″x1 3/4″. The book corners can be adjoined tightly or by leaving space between. They can be square or rectangle shaped. Add an eyelet and ribbon for hanging. Embellish with a charm at the top. For an elaborate look add another eyelet and attach beads, a charm or a tassel at the bottom. For ornaments add some bling or glitter glass. Packaging material can be sandwiched in between the back and front piece for extra bulk. You can glue your book corners if desired.

These book corner metal mementos display your favorite keepsakes in style. Store in a pretty box and enjoy.
