Step 1 of 10

Gather your materials.

Step 2 of 10

Place the laminating sheet clear side down, and lift up the backing sheet.

Step 3 of 10

Place the ticket front side down on the laminating sheet. Center the ticket as best as possible. Remove the paper protecting the sticky surface of the laminating sheet.

Step 4 of 10

Roll the backing slowly over the ticket. Smooth the sheet with a credit card or similar object to remove the air bubbles.

Step 5 of 10

Cut the excess laminate roughly to your preferred size.

Step 6 of 10

To round the corners, use as a guide an object that already has rounded corners. Altoids tins are a good thing to have. Line up the edges of the guide with the edges of the bookmark.

Step 7 of 10

Using a felt-tipped pen, trace the corners. Fine-tipped dry erase markers are good.

Step 8 of 10

Cut along the traced lines. Finish-cut the edges, too.

Step 9 of 10

The finished product.

Step 10 of 10

Fin!

@Erik, Cheers for the heads up! @Darien, I just saw Sir David Attenborough speak tonight. Absolutely fantastic. That will be my first book mark. Can't wait to go out to other events to make more book marks!! 😜

@Erik, thanks for the tip. I should have included that important piece of information in the guide.

Thanks for the compliment, Lisa! If you're like me, I'm sure you'll collect a few more tickets in no time.

Good idea, but WARNING: Do NOT use heat laminate for this project. Your ticket will turn all black.

Thanks, Isaac. Neil played several brand new songs, some from his latest album, and also a few old favorites. He's still got it. Have fun when you see him.

Good idea. I'm always interested in ways people store/display/repurpose those many used concert tickets. How was Neil?! Will be seeing him at OL and then back east later in November.
