What you’ll need:
- Pink and red felt
- Thin wire
- Ribbon
- Scissors
- Glue
Directions:
1. Cut out felt circles to be 4 ½ inches in diameter.
2. Line the thin wire down the middle, cover with pretty pink ribbon and glue in place.
3. Let the glue dry for a bit, then fold the circle in half so the ribbon is on the inside.
4. Bend corners closer together to form a fortune cookie (The wire makes it bendable!) Then write a sweet message and slip the paper fortune through.
5. Voila, you’ve got ah-dorable Valentine’s Day fortunes for all your BFFs!

What you’ll need:
- Foam circle wreath from the floral section of your craft store

1. Paint the foam circle pink or red and then hot glue or pin felt roses all over the surface.
2. How to make the cute roses? Just cut out squares of felt in V-Day colors.
