Today is all about the couples! I have to admit to borrowing this idea from Martha, but I substituted some things… that’s enough to create my own DIY out of it right? 😉
We’re going to make some super cute felt fortune cookies for a fun DIY Valentine’s Day gift. This is so easy and you can get as innocent or as risky as you want with the fortunes 😉
First you will need the following supplies:
- Felt
- Your own fortunes printed on paper
- Twist ties or a thin wire
- Glue gun or fabric/tacky glue
- Ribbon
First you need to cut your felt into circles. My circles were about 3.5″ in diameter.
Then, grab a twist tie (cut to size if needed) and glue it onto the center of your circle. I found that using 2 twist ties was a little better, but this will depend on how strong the wires are.
Grab a matching ribbon and glue it on top of the twist tie to hide all of it’s ugliness.
Pop your fortune inside!
Pinch the top of your cookie together…
… Then bend it from the bottom wires into that classic fortune cookie shape.
Give them to your lover and watch him open up all his love-filled fortunes! I’d love to know what you thought of this tutorial! What are some cute fortunes others could put inside their cookies?
Like my nails? That tutorial is here!
