Good fortune will smile on everyone with these fun, be-ribboned favors! Whether you're watching the ball drop at a party or cozying up at home (our favorite!) they make a fun addition to any celebration!
Good Fortune Favorsscissors
8-1/2" x 11" sheets colored paper
colored pens or markers
fortunes or fun quotes
curling ribbon
clear plastic or glass ornaments
Cut strips of paper one to 2" wide, as needed to fit into ornaments, and about
8-1/2" long. Write a fortune or quote on each strip of paper. (We've given you a few examples to get started below!) Roll each fortune into a tight scroll and tie with ribbon, leaving end of ribbon long. Place one fortune into each ornament; allow excess ribbon to trail out of top of ornament, if using glass. Leave ribbon inside if using plastic. Stack the favors in a dish and let guests choose (and read!) their fortunes at the strike of midnight!
