How to Make

  1. Take a sheet of white copier card and cut it into a square.
  2. Fold the square in half lengthways, then open it and fold it in half the other way. Then fold each corner into the centre point.
  3. Turn the paper over and then fold each corner into the centre point again.
  4. Fold it in half to make a rectangle, then put a finger/thumb into each of the pockets and open it up into a fortune teller.
  5. Hold the fortune teller in one hand to keep its shape, and use a pencil to lightly mark out the sections of the Union Jack.
  6. Gently fold back the fortune teller to flatten it, then colour in each section with the felt tip pens.
  7. Put your fingers/thumb back into the pockets to open the fortune teller and reveal the Union Jack.
