My Hobby

Let's see.

Today I might go fly a kite，or maybe go for a swim.

It is hot outside，and I don't know what to do.

My mom tells me that I should do something that I like doing on hot days.

Since our house is nice and cool，I guess I'll stay inside and work on my hobby.

My hobby is something that not a lot of people do.

I make and collect bookmarks.

To make my bookmarks，I use stickers and special art pencils to draw.

I buy the stickers at a mall，usually in a card store.

The art pencils are bought in an art store.

Too make the bookmarks，I start with a piece of paper.

I measure out how big I want the bookmarks to be with a ruler.

I once made a bookmark so big，that it couldn't even be used in a very big book.

After I measure it，I draw lines so that I can cut it straight.

Sometimes，I use fancy scissors that cut zig-zags or frills.

Then I start to decorate them.

I like to draw cartoons or flowers on my bookmarks.

Sometimes，I even put real flowers on them.

A lot of time，I write little sayings on the bookmarks.

I like to give my bookmarks to my friends and family.

Sometimes，I even sell my bookmarks to people.

I like my hobby.

I can draw whatever I want on the bookmarks.

Maybe sometimes in the future，I will be a famous bookmark maker and even have my own store.
