I found this adorable felt Valentine craft on Martha's website and am smitten. All you need is felt, ribbon, craft glue, floral wire and whatever you want to fill them with. I'm totally doing this for class parties and Visiting Teaching next month! Oh yeah.
There is no sewing involved, so if you can cut and glue, you're golden. Here's the link with instructions:

ps. A lady commented she used craft sheet foam instead of felt and they turned out even better.

I wade these last year for Chinese New Year! But I made them with just brown felt. Mine didn't quite come out as cute as Martha's, but they were still fun!!
Okay, that last comment was me! I am on my husbands computer and I always forget to sign him off! So you don't have a random strange man coming to your blog commenting about felt fortune cookies! It is just me!!
LOVE IT!!! I will be doing this as well. Thanks and shhhhh I will give you a day of showing you some fun bakery tips.
Oh man I CAN CUT AND GLUE!!!! The kids would love love love to make these. They will do the filling part and I will do the gluing part. I think the sheet foam is a good idea too.
Ps You and C. can have the secrets as long as you share the goods ;)

If there is little to no sewing then I really am golden!! :) Thanks for the cute craft idea!
I love them. A little child labor and we can kick out enough for all our kids classes. Thanks Renee!
