Snow Cone Drinks: This drink is equal parts nostalgia and party-in-a-glass. Slightly on the sweeter side, we wouldn’t have too many or you can expect a killer hangover on the 5th. (via Kirbie’s Cravings)

Purple Independence: Who says everything’s gotta be red, white and blue? This cocktail’s color makes it a little bit of (delicious) rebellion in a glass and a pretty addition to your table. (via A Year of Cocktails)

Sugar Cookie Pudding Shots: These layered shots are sweet and fun, and the amaretto flavor is the perfect compliment to the pudding. And how adorable are those cookie stars? (via Jelly Shot Test Kitchen)

Supplies:

• pickle jars - or other glass jars with lids

• Americana multi-surface paint - we used the colors pumpkin patch, pink cadillac, coastal waters

• paint brushes

• E-6000 glue


Steps:
• Put pickle jars and lids through a couple cleaning cycles in the dishwasher
• Pick colors and gave each lid about 4-5 coats. (Try a quick coat of grey primer - the words on the lids can be a pain to cover completely)
• Put them aside and let them air cure for 7 days
• Take the bottom screw out of the curio knobs and use the E-6000 to glue the knobs to the center of each lid.
• Let that dry for another 24 hours and then they are ready to be used

Felt Fortune Cookies

Make these adorable felt fortune cookies for Valentine's Day!

 

You Need:

• Felt 
• Ribbon 
• Fabric shears 
• Wire cutters 
• Craft glue 

Steps: 

Step 1 
Using fabric shears, cut a 4 1/2-inch-diameter circle from a piece of felt. Cut a piece of matching ribbon slightly shorter than 4 1/2 inches. Using wire cutters, cut a piece of floral wire slightly shorter than the length of ribbon.

Step 2 
Using craft glue, affix the wire to the middle of the felt circle. Glue ribbon on top, covering the wire. Let dry 30 minutes.

Step 3 
Fold the felt circle in half, using the wire as a guide, so ribbon is inside cookie. Next, angle the sides toward each other, bending the wire at its halfway point and forming a fortune-cookie shape, as shown.

Step 4 
Assemble the fortune cookies. Carefully peel back one flap of the felt cookie, and insert a paper fortune and a few candies. Fold the flap back over to close cookie around contents.
