New Year Cone of Wishes

The start of a new year is a great time to make wishes and plans. This candy pink cone shaped ornament is the perfect way to keep those wishes safe through the months. It has been proven that when one puts a wish out into the world, it is far more likely to come true. These cone ornaments would be super fun to make with a whole Girl Scout troop, a family, a classroom or on your own.

You will need the following supplies and materials:

  • Eco-fi Plus Candy Pink Felt (12 x 18)
  • Eco-fi Plus (any other colors for decorations)
  • Scissors
  • Felt Glue
  • Sizzix Lemonade Alphabet and Die-Cut Machine
  • Ribbon
  • Hole Punch
  • Wish Printable New Year Wish Cards

The first step needs to be done ahead of time to give the glue plenty of time to dry. Roll the candy pink felt into a cone and use felt glue to hold it shut.

When it is completely dry, trim off the excess felt with scissors. Tie the bottom closed with ribbon.

Add decorations with other colors of felt like the new year, stars, etc.

Hole punch on both sides of the cone. Then tie ribbon through the holes to create a handle.


Add some confetti or crinkle paper and wishes that were written on the printable to your cone!

You can now find an expanded color line of Kunin® ClassicfeltKunin® Premiumfelt and Corduroy non-wovens fabrics in cut by the yard at your local Walmart; please inquire as to what is available in your area.

Have a wonderful new year filled with wishes and dreams come true.
