There’s something poetic about placing a hemp leaf inside a book — two worlds of plant and paper meeting between chapters. Pressed hemp leaves make perfect bookmarks because they’re lightweight, flat, and visually striking.
To make your own, start with fully dried pressed leaves. Place a leaf between two sheets of clear laminating film or self-adhesive sheets. Trim the edges, round the corners, and add a hole punch at the top if you want to attach ribbon, twine, or hemp cord.
For a rustic touch, you can pair the leaf with kraft paper, handwritten quotes, dried flowers, or watercolor backgrounds. For a modern look, laminate the leaf solo and keep the design clean.
These bookmarks make thoughtful gifts for teachers, readers, gardeners, journaling lovers, and anyone who enjoys handmade keepsakes. Each one feels like a tiny piece of the ranch you can carry with you.
