This project came to me whilst I was preparing gifts for my friends for Christmas. I filled my Felt fortune cookies with earrings but you could fill them with any sort of small item, or even a written token of love or similar.
Start by cutting your circle out for your fortune cookie. My circle was about 2 inch (5 cm) in size. But your cookie can be as big or small as you need it to be.

To finish the cookies place them into a Chinese take away box and decorate it up. I placed a small tag on my box that said: Confucius Say Gifts from Friends are worth a Fortune
