In an effort to be honest, I must admit that I spent the weekend after Thanksgiving watching The Real Housewives and pinning things on Pinterest! I did this all guilt-free....as I deserved it after all that cooking and entertaining. While on Pinterest, I was searching for some cute ornaments that I could DIY. I found this awesome fortune cookie ornament tutorial created by Alissa on the blog 24-7-365. Now I am not going to do another tutorial, because frankly I couldn't do a better job than Alissa did. However, I will tell you the shortcuts I took.
This was a super easy project, but I was able to take it to the next level of laziness by using all felt. That way I didn't need to worry about fraying or using pinking shears. I also didn't sew the two circle pieces together (step 3 in tutorial) . The felt was stiff enough, that it stayed together without sewing around the perimeter. Finally, I used the old hot glue gun to glue the ribbon hanger in.
