I mentioned
here about my first date with my husband at an Asian
restaurant. So when we celebrated his birthday (which also happens to be a
celebration of our first date), I made fortune cookies for him. Not the edible
kind; these were made out of felt.
This was an easy and fun project and one I knew
he would appreciate.
 |
| First I typed up and cut out fortunes and messages for him |
 |
| First you cut circles out of felt. I made them about 1.5 inches in diameter but would recommend 2 -2.5 inches. |
 |
| Then I laid a small piece of thin wire across the circle |
 |
| I covered each piece of wire with a small piece of felt and glued it on with foam/felt glue |
 |
| Place message inside, on top of the wire |
 |
| Fold circle around the fortune/message |
 |
| Fold in half again |
 |
| Finished product! |
 |
| I placed them in a Chinese takeout container |
