Welcome to another exciting DIY adventure! Today, we’re putting a creative twist on the classic paper fortune teller game. Whether you’re looking to spark interesting conversations or add a touch of fun to your day, this project is perfect for you. With over 100,000 views on YouTube, our DIY Favorites Fortune Teller has captivated crafters of all ages. Now, let’s dive into the step-by-step process to create your own!
Materials Needed:
- Cardstock Paper (or plain paper): Card Stock Paper
- Crayons: Crayons
- Sharpie Marker: Sharpie Marker
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Prepare Your Paper
Start with a square piece of cardstock paper. If you don’t have cardstock, regular plain paper works just fine. The sturdiness of cardstock, however, adds a nice touch to your fortune teller.
2. Folding the Fortune Teller
Fold your square paper in half diagonally both ways to create a crease. Then, fold each corner towards the center to form a smaller square. Flip it over and repeat the process, folding each new corner to the center. Watching the video can give you a visual aid on how to do it.
3. Labeling
Once all corners are folded, label each of the outer triangles with a different number or color. These will be used to select the categories or questions.
4. Customizing Questions
Now comes the fun part – adding your questions! Unfold the inner flaps and write down questions or prompts under each triangle. You can customize these questions to suit your preferences, whether they’re fun icebreakers, thoughtful prompts, or quirky queries.
5. Decorating
Use your crayons and Sharpie marker to decorate your fortune teller. Add colors, doodles, and patterns to make it uniquely yours. This is where your creativity can shine!
Using the Fortune Teller
To play, have someone pick a number or color from the outer flaps. Move the fortune teller back and forth that many times. Then, have them pick again from the revealed inner numbers or colors. Finally, open the chosen flap to reveal their question or fortune.
Why This Craft is Perfect:
- Interactive Fun: It’s a great way to engage with friends and family, sparking conversations and laughter.
- Customizable: Tailor the questions and designs to fit any occasion or theme.
- Creative Expression: Decorating your fortune teller allows for personal expression and artistic flair.
