New Year's Eve souvenir: happiness in a glass

What you need:
  • 4 x Mini Jars
  • 1 white paper (normal printer paper)
  • Scissors
  • Pencil
  • Paint brush
  • liquid glue
  • glitter
And here's how it works: Let the fortune cookie factory begin: Draw a circle on the white paper with a pen and cut it out. We simply used a lid from the Ball Mason jar - Wide Mouth lid (diameter: approx. 9 cm) for larger fortune cookies and the Regular Mouth lid (diameter: approx. 7 cm) for Mason jars for smaller fortune cookies. Write little messages on pieces of paper and put them aside. Now place the two "sides" of the circle on top of each other so that you get half a circle. Don't bend the paper - now we're forming the fortune cookie. We now carefully press the curved side (the straight side of the circle) into the middle so that the fortune cookie automatically forms. The video shows the steps in detail. Before you glue the two inner sides together, place the note in the middle of the fortune cookie, fold both sides together and glue the inner sides together. Use a brush to add some glitter to the ends of the paper fortune cookie and your New Year's Eve gift is ready. Put the fortune cookie in the jar and give away your New Year's wishes! Happy New Year!
