Book-Tails Bookmark - Sloth

Product Information

I like to think that my Harry Potter patronus is a sloth. They are slow, calm, relaxed, and they don’t even care. They’re like a honey badger, but friendly. By then she was old enough to use the hot glue gun on her own (about 11yrs?), but you CAN make this using ordinary glue – you just need to wait for ito dry a bit. I think it is the most adorable bookmark ever. And 2yrs later I still have it.

Your Sloth Basics when crafting

Do you ever wonder what a sloth’s regular day must look like? Being the slowest animal in the world, it mustn’t be very exciting, I assume, but it may be quite relaxed. It is said that sloths eat really slowly and only a few times a day, since even their digestive systems are super slow! And before you ask, yes – they poop just as rarely – only once a week!

Is it too much to ask to want to be a sloth? I think I’d make an excellent sloth. Since I can’t actually be a sloth, or legally own a sloth, and my husband is pretty much against me keeping a secret sloth in our guest room, I guess I will just have to design, craft and create inspired by this primarily upside-down mammal!
