February Acme Party Box - Paper Fortune Cookies

We received our February party box in the mail just in time for our Wednesday School Valentine's Day party.

As always, super cute instructions were included and this time they came in a little drawstring pouch. Very sweet touch. Look! They even tied the paper supplies with string and a little mushroom. 

We were given many different choices of paper circles and we took turns choosing which five designs we wanted to use.

First, we folded the circle in half and then folded it the other way. 

Then we folded the side together (they had a very handy You Tube video tutorial because this part was a little hard to figure out.)

I folded them for the girls since it was a little tricky and then they swiped glue on one side,

and then they pinched them together until the glue dried.

The box came with some fun gold add-ons but we decided to save those for our Valentine's Day bags.

Then we took a glue dot (also included)

and attached a hand written Valentine's Day message to our fortune cookie.

It was a creative and cute Valentine to pass out to our friends and family.

Valentine's Day

I've decided to make Valentine's Day pretty special. It won't look special from the pictures but I promise it was well received. After the girls had gone to bed, I decorated the dining room and set the balloons and cards beside their plates. Then I woke up early and cooked pink pancakes. We also had pink milk, strawberries and the name of some chocolate wafer type things that I can't think of the name of right now. But trust me, they are so good. Pirouettes, maybe?
For some reason I thought I took a lot of pictures but when I went back to look there were only two, very red-casted pictures.
