You're One In A MINION!

Love those Minions? Here's a Great Idea for a Valentine's Day treat!


You will need: 
  1. Milano cookies
  2. black icing for the eye strap and mouth
  3. blue icing for the clothing
  4. candy eyes or Sweet Tarts
  5. small bags to put them in if you want to wrap them individually
  6. stapler
  7. cardstock paper for the tag

  • Make straps for the eyes with the black icing, and then put one of the candy eyes in it. 
  • Draw the mouth. 
  • Use the blue icing for the clothing. 
  • Let all of that sit for an hour or so, until the icing has hardened enough to put your minions into the bag. 
  • Seal each bag, and then fold your paper tag in half. 
  • Staple that to the top and you are done!

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.
