Wooden Bookmarks

Made for my sister-in-law, who happens to like sharks. All wood pieces cut/shaved from an oak (I think) piece of a discarded crib.

Very simple one on the left, just carved her first initial, very light wood stain, and attached shark with a leather strip. On the right I got a bit more creative: applying a blue wash and painting the boat over top.  Used an actual fish hook and line to attach the shark, which I just painted gray. Both treated with a spray-on varnish.
