Lil’ Moustache Fortune Cookies
Nothing beats chilling on my comfy couch, crocheting and enjoying a cup of hot tea after a long hectic week. Some people find it relaxing to read, while others love spending time on their laptops watching movies with a bag of chips on their hands, etc. Crocheting is my form of relaxation as it takes my mind off the hustle and bustle of “the real world” and get absorbed into the world of amigurumis. This hobby of mine reminds me to take a breather, enjoy and be thankful of the little things in life. What is your form of relaxation? :)
I must have been really hungry or having some huge cookie craving because I ended up crocheting so many fortune cookies! 15 in total - 5 in brown (the original cookie colour), 5 in baby blue and 5 in baby pink.
These fortune cookies were really quick and fun to make. However, I felt they were a little plain. So I gave them faces and printed out different fortune messages and placed it inside each cookie.
The idea of making moustache faces came from one of my previous creations: Lil’ Moustache Easter Eggs. Click “Here” to read the blog post and “Here” for the free crochet pattern. Don’t you think these moustache faces add some character and fun to these fortune cookies? :)
Have a closer look of these Lil’ Moustache Fortune Cookies in different colours. Ain’t you tempted to pull out the fortune messages to read?
I had so much fun shooting pictures of these fortune cookies and arranging them in all sorts of formations.
Look! Don’t these fortune cookies look like a flower when they are being arranged this way?
Here’s a picture of the flower formation in a different angle.
I’ve decided to wrap them up nicely and put them in GetVintage Store so you can bring home some moustache fortune cookies too. :)
I got a little playful and took a picture of Twinkle with my handmade moustache. Haha.
I went down to GetVintage the next day to display these newly handmade items. I brought Twinkle along too. She was a bit nervous at first since it was her first time visiting the shop.
But Twinkle’s nervousness died down when she met Kayler. Look! Both of them are shaking hands. How cute! :D
Aww.. You can tell both of them get along really well just by looking at this picture. :) I had a day well spent at GetVintage, shopping and catching up with the gorgeous and friendly boss, Felicia.
These Lil’ Moustache Fortune Cookies can be found at the payment counter and they are patiently waiting to send some good fortune your way. :)
This blue fortune cookie keychain is a custom order. I made his fortune message with white yarn instead of paper so it will be more durable.
